Precision Foam Sheets for Model Makers

The Tamiya 70196 set contains six B4 sheets, each 257x364mm and 1mm thick, providing a clean, low-mass material for model projects. These sheets are useful for flotation additions, light internal supports and low-weight panels.

Recommended Uses in RC Builds

With a smooth finish that takes glue and paint well, the boards are convenient for patterning, repairs and small custom parts. Their thin profile makes them particularly suited to fine detailing work.

Tips to Get the Best Results

Adhesive: For best results, use Tamiya Craft Bond to ensure a secure attachment.
Customization: Trim with care using a sharp blade and stabilise with jigs for repeatable shapes.
Painting: Apply several thin coats rather than one heavy coat to avoid softening the surface.

Will these sheets work for light-duty internal bracing?

Yes, they make good low-weight braces and spacers inside hulls or fuselages where heavy materials are unnecessary.

Are they suitable as a base for scenic modelling?

The boards can serve as a lightweight base for small scenic elements, though thicker substrates may be needed for larger displays.

Does cutting produce a lot of dust or debris?

Trimming with a sharp blade produces minimal mess; using a cutting mat and vacuuming small particles keeps the workspace tidy.

Can I laminate several sheets together for extra thickness?

Yes, multiple layers can be bonded together to achieve desired thickness, ensuring even glue spread and clamping until set for a secure bond.
