Tamiya 80308 XF-8 Flat Blue is supplied in a 10ml bottle and is a versatile enamel for both brushing and airbrushing on plastics, wood and other modelling materials. For spraying, a standard mix is ten parts paint to two parts thinner to achieve consistent atomisation.
Correct thinning will improve paint flow and reduce texture left by spray passes. Apply several light layers rather than one heavy coat to protect delicate detail. XF-8 is suitable for both small-scale detailing and larger scenic areas where a matt blue is needed.
The flat blue tone is dependable and unobtrusive, making it a popular choice for base coats and touch ups. Its balanced formulation works well with a variety of modelling techniques and surfaces.
