Rapid-dry silver lacquer for scale modelling

The Tamiya 85030 TS-30 Silver Leaf is a synthetic acrylic lacquer created to give scale model bodies a clean metallic appearance with minimal drying time. It is popular with builders who want consistent results without long wait periods.

Coverage and compatibility notes

Each 100ml can is sufficient for around two to three 1/24 scale plastic car shells, depending on application. The lacquer is compatible with previously applied and fully cured acrylic or enamel paints, making it suitable for repaint projects.

Practical application recommendations

Ideal for broad areas and body shells, TS-30 sprays on evenly when applied in controlled light passes. Allow short cure intervals between layers and work in a ventilated area for best finish and safety.

Thank rcjaz, I received all items and am happy with this partnership. I hope it is for many years Marcos
Yes, TS-30 can be applied over a cured primer or basecoat. Ensure the primer is fully dry and well prepared for best adhesion and an even metallic finish.
Hold the can roughly 20-30 cm from the surface and use steady, overlapping passes. Keep movements smooth and avoid staying in one spot to prevent runs.
After full cure you can perform a light polish to enhance reflectivity. Test polish technique on a scrap to confirm the lacquer has hardened sufficiently before aggressive buffing.
No. The TS-30 is not formulated for polycarbonate. For clear polycarbonate bodies choose Tamiya PS series paints which are designed for that substrate.
