Precision Acrylic for Scale Work

The Tamiya 81762 XF-62 Olive Drab is supplied as a 10ml acrylic that uses water-soluble resins to provide a smooth, controllable finish for modelling. It supports both brushing and spraying techniques used by scale modellers.

Materials and Adhesion

XF-62 is suitable for styrol resins, common model plastics, wood and foam. Its adhesion is improved on primed surfaces and it mixes readily for tone adjustments and weathering effects.

Preparing for Spray

For airbrushing, thin XF-62 with recommended Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077 and trial the spray on scrap to fine tune atomisation and flow.

Is XF-62 suitable for fine detail on small kits?

Yes, when applied with a fine brush or well thinned for airbrush work, XF-62 can produce crisp colour on small details and panel lines.

Will XF-62 react with other paint types?

XF-62 generally mixes with other water-based acrylics but test mixes first. Avoid combining with strong solvent-based paints without proper testing and priming.

How long should I wait before varnishing?

Allow paint to dry fully to the touch and cure as per normal modelling practice before applying clear coats. Test on a spare piece to confirm dryness to avoid lift or clouding.

What is the best way to store the bottle?

Keep the bottle capped and stored upright in a cool, dry spot away from frost. Ensure the lid is clean before sealing to prevent drying around the rim.
