Authentic Metallic Finish for Scale Models

The Tamiya 82163 LP-63 Titanium Silver lacquer paint is tailored for modellers seeking a true metal look on small-scale parts. It suits detailing tasks such as engine components, exhausts and suspension elements. The 10ml bottle size is useful for both wider airbrushing and precise hand painting.

Consistent Coverage and Protection

Tamiya lacquers are noted for consistent flow and coverage. This Titanium Silver gives a convincing metallic sheen across both large and small surfaces, and it forms a robust membrane that can serve as an effective base coat before applying enamels.

Practical Tips on Drying and Thinner Use

These lacquers dry fairly quickly, allowing for efficient layering in multi-step builds. Colour shades may not be identical to Tamiya acrylics or aeros, so test first if matching is critical. Use the specified lacquer thinner for the cleanest atomisation and to achieve the best surface finish.

A light primer helps with adhesion and uniform colour, especially on bare plastic or resin parts, giving a better final finish.
Clean immediately with the appropriate lacquer thinner and follow the airbrush maker's guidance to avoid corrosion of parts.
You can apply clear coats over fully cured lacquer finishes; choose a compatible lacquer clear or check compatibility when using other paint chemistries.
It generally bonds to painted metal and resin with proper surface prep, but always trial on a scrap piece to confirm adhesion and finish.
