Compact Enamel Gold for Detailing

Tamiya 80012 Enamel X-12 Gold provides a concentrated 10ml of metallic enamel for model finishing. It offers a smooth coating on plastic kits and on sealed wooden craft surfaces when applied correctly.

Application and Mixing Advice

Use by brush for fine accents or thin for airbrush and spray guns. A good starting point for spraying is two parts thinner to ten parts paint to help achieve an even film and reduce spatter.

Recommended Uses and Finish

This gold enamel works well for trim, highlights and larger panel work where a metallic sheen is required. Its fine particles give a clean finish for both detail areas and broader coverage.

Is this suitable for detailed kit painting?

Yes, the concentrated pigment in Tamiya 80012 makes it a good choice for fine detailing as long as you apply thin, controlled coats.

What is the safest way to store leftover paint?

Keep the bottle tightly closed, store upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extremes of temperature to maintain paint quality.

Can I mix this gold with other enamels?

You can blend enamel colours, but mix small test amounts first to check shade and compatibility before committing to larger quantities.

Any tips for avoiding brush marks?

Apply several thin coats rather than one thick coat, use a good quality brush and maintain a wet edge to minimise visible brush strokes.
