Introduction to Tamiya 81359 - XF-59 Desert Yellow

The Tamiya 81359 - XF-59 Desert Yellow is an acrylic resin paint that gives modellers consistent colour and control. It is formulated for both hand brushing and airbrushing, depending on the task.

Applications and Compatibility

This 23ml Desert Yellow suits styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and most model plastics, delivering even coats and good blending options for highlights and shading.

Practical Application Advice

  • Surface Preparation: Wipe parts clean and remove any residues to improve paint adhesion.
  • Brush Painting: Work in light layers and let each dry to keep crisp detail and avoid pooling.
  • Airbrushing: Use recommended thinning and check your air pressure to get a smooth, consistent spray.
Priming is recommended for best results, especially on smooth or nonporous plastics. A primer helps with adhesion and evens out the surface.
Yes, once the acrylic is fully dry you can use weathering powders or washes to age and detail the finish, sealing them afterwards if needed.
Keep bottles upright with lids tightened, store away from heat and direct light, and avoid freezing temperatures to maintain paint quality.
