Fine Matte Aluminium Finish from Tamiya LP-38 82138

The LP-38 Flat Aluminum Lacquer from Tamiya creates a muted metallic finish suitable for model cars, bikes and accessory parts. It sprays evenly and takes brush highlights well when thinned for fine work.

Strong Lacquer Film and Fast Workflow

This lacquer hardens into a durable film that is often used as a base layer and stands up to many enamel topcoats. Its faster drying characteristic helps shorten paint cycles for hobbyists managing multiple parts.

Compatibility, Volume and Thinning

Sold in a 10ml bottle, LP-38 is intended for general scale painting. The lacquer tone may not exactly match Tamiya acrylics or spray variants with the same label. For best spraying performance use a lacquer-compatible thinner and ensure adequate ventilation while working.

Lacquer finishes are durable, but long term outdoor exposure may cause fading or wear. For display pieces that stay indoors, LP-38 is a reliable choice.
Avoid mixing lacquer and acrylic systems directly. Use each system with compatible thinners and topcoats to prevent adhesion problems.
Work in a well ventilated area, use a suitable respirator when spraying and keep lacquer thinners away from open flames. Follow the product safety guidance on the label.
