Finish and fit for model kits with Tamiya 82122 LP-22

The Tamiya 82122 Lacquer Paint LP-22 Flat Base is a 10ml lacquer formulated to produce a consistent matt finish that enhances fine details. It is appropriate for both broad coverage via airbrush and precision brushwork on smaller components.

Why choose LP-22 as a basecoat

LP-22 dries to a resilient film that resists light wear, making it an effective foundation under further paint layers. The lacquer surface helps preserve crisp panel lines and prevents easy scuffing during handling.

Layering and hue considerations

Lacquer tones sometimes vary compared with acrylic or spray versions sharing the same colour label. Testing combinations and small-scale trials will help you predict the final result and tune your layering approach.

Use thinned, even coats and a high-quality brush for minimal brush strokes, or opt for light airbrush passes to achieve a smooth matt surface.
A compatible primer for plastic or metal will improve adhesion and color uniformity, especially on newly assembled parts or bare substrates.
Since lacquer and acrylics behave differently, try blending on a test piece and allow full cure before overcoating to avoid lifting or softening earlier layers.
