Tamiya 85078 TS-78 Field Gray2 Finish and Coverage

The Tamiya 85078 TS-78 Field Gray2 spray paint is a dependable option for modellers after a neat finish on plastic kits. This synthetic acrylic lacquer dries quickly to speed up painting sequences. A 100ml can normally covers two to three 1/24 scale model car bodies.

Suitable Substrates

This lacquer is intended for use over fully cured acrylic or enamel paints, allowing you to layer colours or add masking effects without harmful reactions.

Application and Care

Ensure surfaces are clean and dry, shake the can well and apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy pass. Let each coat cure before handling or further masking for decals.

Is Tamiya 85078 suitable for gloss or matt topcoats?

The lacquer provides a stable base that can be overcoated with compatible clear coats. Choose a matt or gloss topcoat depending on the finish you want and allow full cure first.

What is the best way to prevent runs?

Spray light, even layers from a steady distance and avoid staying in one spot. Multiple thin passes reduce the chance of runs and give a smoother finish.

Can I use it directly over primer?

Yes, over a fully cured primer that is compatible with synthetic acrylic lacquers. Test on a small area if you are using a new primer brand.

Any tips for storage between uses?

Store cans upright in a cool, dry place and shake well before each use. Keep away from direct heat and follow label safety instructions.
