Precision Mini Acrylic for Scale Models

The Tamiya 81506 Mini Acrylic X-6 Orange provides a precise, high-visibility orange in a compact 10ml bottle for scale modellers. Its water-soluble acrylic resins make it versatile for both fine brush detail and airbrush application, with good adhesion to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, and typical modelling plastics.

Application Notes

This acrylic is suitable for delicate detailing or larger painted areas where a crisp orange is needed. For airbrushing, thin with recommended Tamiya thinners like 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077 and adjust to your equipment for steady atomisation.

Community Take

Model builders frequently pick the X-6 Orange for its consistent colour and blending behaviour, making it handy for touch ups and creating layered colour effects.

Can I use this paint with an airbrush on thin plastic parts?

Yes, but use gentle passes and thin the paint appropriately with a Tamiya thinner to avoid over-saturating thin plastic or causing warping.

Does it dry quickly between coats?

Drying time depends on film thickness and ambient conditions, but thin coats dry reasonably fast; allow full surface cure before handling or applying varnish.

What is the best way to achieve a smooth finish?

Apply multiple thin layers rather than one heavy coat, and use recommended thinners for the airbrush to ensure even atomisation and a smooth surface.
