Essential Orange Acrylic for Model Making

The Tamiya 81006 Acrylic X-6 Orange is supplied in a compact 23ml bottle and suits many modelling tasks. Its water-soluble acrylic composition allows both brush and airbrush application. It adheres well to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, and a range of model plastics, giving consistent results.

Smooth Finish and Layering Ease

This paint offers steady flow and good opacity, making it useful for both detailing and base coats. It blends cleanly for colour matching and layering, and its formulation reduces visible brush strokes to improve the final appearance of models.

Versatile Use on Different Substrates

Alongside plastic kits, the paint is suitable for wooden and foam components, reducing the need to switch products mid-build. Being water-soluble simplifies cleaning and lowers smell, beneficial when working inside workshop spaces.

Yes, thin the paint with water or an acrylic thinner for smoother atomisation; test on scrap to find the right ratio for your nozzle.
Once fully dry and cured, Tamiya acrylics generally tolerate clear coats well; allow adequate drying time to minimise lifting when applying varnish.
Do not mix water-based acrylics directly with solvent-based enamels; use separate layers or compatible products to avoid reactions.
