Transparent Colour Layering with Tamiya LP-53

The 10ml Tamiya LP-53 Clear Orange lacquer is tailored for modeller use where a sheer orange tint is needed on lenses, lights and weathered edges. Its compact bottle makes it handy for repairs and accenting small areas.

Techniques for Controlled Coverage

Use thin airbrush passes or a soft brush stroke to control opacity with LP-53. The lacquer's even flow helps avoid pooling so you can achieve subtle shading without rework.

Fast Drying and Strong Film

This lacquer dries quickly to form a resilient film that accepts further coatings, including enamels. The rapid cure time keeps paint sessions moving and lowers the risk of contamination between steps.

Combining with Other Paint Lines

LP-53 generally harmonises with Tamiya acrylics and aerosols but small variations in shade can occur. For predictable thinning and finish, use Tamiya lacquer thinner as recommended.

Yes, LP-53 can be layered in multiple thin coats to build intensity. Allow each coat to dry completely before adding the next to avoid tackiness.
Clean the surface of grease and dust, and ensure previous paints are fully cured. Scuff glossy surfaces lightly to improve adhesion when necessary.
