Tamiya 81505 Mini Acrylic X-5 Green - Precision modelling colour

The Tamiya 81505 Mini Acrylic X-5 Green is delivered in a 10ml container and is based on water-soluble acrylic resins, making it suitable for brush and airbrush application. The formulation supports controlled laydown for fine detail and small-scale parts.

Recommended Substrates and Uses

This acrylic is formulated for use on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and the majority of model plastics, providing consistent coverage and a tidy finish. It blends well for effects like panel shading or touch up work.

Airbrush Preparation and Thinning

When airbrushing, pair the paint with Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 to achieve a stable spray and prevent clogging. Adjust dilution to suit nozzle size and pressure.

Is this paint suitable for adding fine weathering details?

Yes, its smooth flow and easy blending make it suitable for subtle weathering and panel line work when applied in thin layers or washes.

How should I store the 10ml bottles?

Keep bottles sealed and stored upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shake well before use to ensure uniform pigment suspension.

Will sanding be possible between coats?

Light sanding between well-cured thin coats can be done to smooth imperfections, but allow sufficient drying time to avoid clogging the sandpaper with fresh paint.

Are there special precautions for mixing colours?

Mix small test batches to confirm colour and drying properties before larger mixes. Use clean containers and avoid contamination with oil-based products.
