Gun metal lacquer for scale modellers from Tamiya TS-38

Tamiya TS-38 Gun Metal is a 100ml synthetic acrylic lacquer that gives a refined metallic appearance to model parts. Its smooth application and rapid drying help reduce wait time between coats during assembly and finishing.

Quick coverage for body shells

A single 100ml can will generally cover two to three 1/24 scale model car bodies when applied in several light passes. The quick setting time helps maintain a clean finish while you work on decals and detailing.

Flexible with other hobby paints

This TS-38 spray is compatible with established modelling paints including acrylics and enamels when those layers are fully cured, allowing for layering and minor repairs without disturbing the base paint.

Can I spray TS-38 over primer?

Yes. Applying a compatible primer on bare or uneven surfaces improves adhesion and uniformity. Make sure the primer is fully dry before applying TS-38.

What is the best way to avoid runs?

Spray in light, even passes and keep the can moving to avoid heavy buildup. Allow brief flash times between thin coats to reduce the chance of runs and sags.

How should I store leftover spray cans?

Store cans upright in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight. Give the nozzle a short clear spray after use to help prevent clogging.
