Reliable Mini Acrylic for Hobby Use

The Tamiya 81501 Mini Acrylic X-1 Black comes in a 10ml bottle and is formulated from water-soluble acrylic resins to work on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and most model plastics. It applies smoothly and offers consistent coverage whether brushed or airbrushed.

Application and Thinning Advice

For airbrushing or a finer finish, thin with Tamiya recommended thinners including 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 and 87077. Using the right thinner helps maintain an even viscosity and improves the spray pattern on delicate parts.

Do I need to prime resin parts before using this paint?

Priming is recommended for resin parts to promote adhesion and prevent solvents in the paint from affecting the surface.

Can I use the paint straight from the bottle for detail work?

For fine brushwork you can use it straight from the bottle, but thin layers and practice strokes are advised to avoid brush marks.

How should I clean my airbrush after using this paint?

Flush with water and a recommended airbrush cleaner while the paint is still wet; if it cures inside the cup or nozzle, a dedicated cleaner may be required.

What's the best way to store opened bottles?

Close caps tightly, store upright in a cool spot and avoid strong temperature swings to keep the remaining paint usable for longer.
