Notable Points about XF-17 Sea Blue

Volume: 23ml
Application: Prepared for brushwork and airbrushing
Compatibility: Designed for use on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and typical plastics

Should I prime before applying this paint?

Priming is advisable to improve adhesion and to reduce the number of top coats required, particularly on smooth plastic surfaces.

Which thinner is best for spraying?

Use Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 and test to find the thinning ratio that suits your airbrush and nozzle size.

Can I topcoat after this acrylic?

Yes. Once fully dry, the paint can be sealed with compatible clear lacquers or varnishes to protect the finish and add gloss or matt effects as required.

Is it suitable for weathering techniques?

The stable surface accepts washes and pigments well once cured, making it suitable for common weathering and detailing methods used by modellers.
