XF-7 Flat Red Enamel for Scale Modelling

The 10ml Tamiya XF-7 Flat Red Enamel is designed for modellers who need a reliable, low-sheen red for scale kits and crafts. It performs well on standard modelling substrates such as plastic and wood, making it a versatile finishing colour.

Application Notes for Clean Finish

For spray application, a good starting mix is two parts thinner to ten parts paint. Thin coats applied in stages will produce a uniform flat finish while minimising orange peel and runs.

Practical Uses and Finishing

Use XF-7 for areas that require a subdued red tone, from body panels to small detail parts. Its compatibility with various materials makes it useful for final coats and corrective painting.

Priming is recommended for smooth plastics or previously varnished parts to ensure even coverage and improved adhesion for the XF-7 enamel.
Once fully cured, XF-7 can be overcoated with compatible clear enamels or lacquers for additional protection or sheen adjustment. Test on a scrap first for compatibility.
Use adequate ventilation or a respirator, wear gloves when needed, and keep solvents and paints away from open flames. Follow basic workshop safety when working with enamels.
