Stable Sheet for Scale Modelling

The Tamiya 70082 3mm Foam Board is a dependable choice for model makers seeking a smooth, consistent substrate for bespoke components. Its 3mm format is convenient for precise cutting, shaping and layering where accurate thickness matters.

Quality You Can Rely On

Tamiya's foam sheet is straightforward to tool and accepts fillers and primers well. It provides enough body for structural mock-ups, trim pieces and decorative panels without being cumbersome to handle.

Where to Use This Foam

This sheet works well for scale bodies, cockpit interiors, mounting plates and templates. It is particularly useful when you need repeatable panels or when prototyping parts before moving to heavier materials.

Which adhesive should I choose for a neat join?

Use a PVA or contact adhesive for broad area bonds, and a foam-safe CA for small or quick fixes. Reinforce screw points with a thin hardwood or composite plate if needed.

How do I get a smooth painted finish?

Seal the surface with a light primer or PVA, sand smooth, then apply acrylic primers before topcoating. Multiple thin paint layers give the best result without softening the foam.

Is this compatible with polyurethane fillers?

Some fillers work well but avoid solvent-based products that can attack the foam. Use water-based or lightweight modelling fillers and test on a scrap edge first.

What is the best way to get precise curves?

Score the inner face lightly before bending, or use multiple thin lamination layers to build a curve. A hot wire can also produce smooth radiused cuts for repeatable shapes.
