TS-48 Gunship Grey Tamiya 85048 for Scale Kits

The Tamiya 85048 TS-48 Gunship Grey is a 100ml synthetic acrylic lacquer aerosol designed for plastic modelling. It delivers a fine, durable coating that keeps panel lines and small details crisp on aircraft, ships and figure work.

Good Coverage and Short Drying Window

This 100ml spray commonly covers two to three 1/24 scale car bodies, making it practical for larger jobs. Its short drying window means you can apply additional light coats without long delays.

Suitable Over Acrylic and Enamel Bases

TS-48 can be sprayed over previously applied acrylic or enamel paints, allowing layered colour work and detailed finishing while maintaining strong adhesion.

Is TS-48 appropriate for polycarbonate model shells?

No. The TS series is not suitable for polycarbonate. For polycarbonate bodies select the Tamiya PS line which is formulated for that material.

What spray technique gives the best finish?

Hold the can at a consistent distance and apply several light, overlapping passes to avoid runs and achieve a smooth finish. Allow light flash-off between coats.

Do I need a clear coat over TS-48?

A clear coat can protect the finish and add gloss or matt as required. Choose a compatible sealer if you plan heavy handling or additional weathering steps.

Can I layer TS colours for subtle shade variations?

Yes, TS lacquers work together for subtle shading and multi-tone schemes. Apply thin transitional coats to blend without obscuring detail.
