Upgrade Your Model with Tamiya 82016 PC-16 Metal Blue

Tamiya 82016 PC-16 Metal Blue is crafted for polycarbonate shells, producing a crisp metallic blue that suits both competition and display models. The paint is designed to lay down evenly and maintain colour under typical use.

Reasons to Use the PC-16 Shade

The PC-16 blend adheres cleanly to polycarbonate, offering reliable coverage and resistance to minor wear. It gives a modern metallic sheen that complements many vehicle designs.

Best Practice for Application

Clean the shell thoroughly to remove oils and dust before painting.
Apply a series of light, overlapping passes rather than heavy coats to avoid runs.
Allow adequate drying time between layers to build depth and improve durability.

Can I use this on other plastics?

Tamiya 82016 PC-16 is intended for polycarbonate bodies and may not bond properly to other plastic types without special preparation.

How many light coats are typical?

Two to three light coats usually provide good colour depth while minimising the risk of runs; add more coats if a deeper chromatic effect is desired.

What is the best way to maintain the finish?

Avoid abrasive cleaners and use a soft cloth; minor scratches can often be reduced by polishing with a suitable non-abrasive polish designed for painted lexan surfaces.
