Fine Gold Acrylic for Models

The Tamiya 81512 Mini Acrylic X-12 Gold is a 10ml water-soluble acrylic designed to add gold accents to scale models and figurines. It is suitable for both brush application and airbrushing and bonds to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and many model plastics.

Pro-Level Finish from Tamiya

Tamiya acrylics provide dependable coverage and a smooth gloss; the X-12 Gold delivers a bright metallic finish that can be blended with other hues to achieve subtle variations. It is favoured for small parts and detailed paintwork.

Tips for Smooth Results

Brush Painting: Use for tight areas and final detailing to keep edges crisp.
Airbrushing: For uniform coverage thin with Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077.

What airbrush tip size works well with this paint?

A 0.3 to 0.5 mm tip is a good starting point; adjust thinning until you get a fine, consistent mist for metallic coverage.

Are there ventilation or safety tips?

Work in a well ventilated space and consider a spray booth for airbrushing; follow basic safety guidance when using thinners and sprays.

Will it cover pre-painted parts?

It can be applied over existing paint if the surface is clean and keyable; test a small area first to confirm adhesion and colour result.
