Flat Clear Topcoat for Plastic Kits

The Tamiya 85080 TS-80 Flat Clear Spray Paint provides a matt protective finish for assembled models. Its synthetic acrylic lacquer formula dries quickly to minimise wait time between stages.

Practical Coverage Details

A 100ml can of Tamiya TS-80 typically covers enough for two to three 1/24 scale plastic car bodies, making it suitable for multiple builds or larger panels.

Paint Compatibility and Use

TS-80 is safe to apply over cured acrylic and enamel layers and is suited to most modelling plastics when surfaces are properly prepared. This makes it a flexible choice for varied finishing techniques.

Can I use this on shiny plastic without sanding?

Sanding or scuffing glossy plastic is recommended before spraying to ensure the lacquer adheres evenly and the finish is consistent.

What is the best technique for a smooth matt finish?

Use several light, even passes from the recommended distance and avoid heavy single coats; this reduces runs and helps achieve a uniform matt surface.

Will TS-80 affect decals?

Apply TS-80 over fully dry decals with care; test on a small area if needed and use light coats to protect edges and avoid lifting.

How should I dispose of empty aerosol cans?

Follow local guidelines for aerosol disposal. Ensure the can is empty and handle according to local recycling or hazardous waste rules.
