Eye-Catching Red for Small Model Builds

The Tamiya 85308 - MS-8 Fluorescent Red spray is aimed at model hobbyists who want a strong, noticeable red on plastic bodies and parts. It provides a neat, resilient surface when applied correctly.

Features and Handling Notes

This Tamiya spray is tailored to hobby plastics, delivering consistent adhesion and a smooth look. Apply in controlled, light layers and keep the can moving to prevent pooling.

Is the spray safe for polycarbonate RC bodies?

No. This product is not suitable for polycarbonate surfaces. Use a polycarbonate-specific paint for those bodies.

Can I thin this spray for an airbrush?

No. Aerosol sprays are not designed to be thinned for airbrush use. Use compatible bottled paints for airbrush work.

What preparation gives the best result on plastic?

Wash parts to remove oils, lightly sand if needed, and ensure surfaces are dry and dust free before spraying.

Should I apply a clear coat over the finish?

A clear coat can increase gloss and protection for display pieces or parts that will be handled often. Test compatibility first on a scrap piece.

How do I avoid runs and sags when spraying?

Keep the can moving, use short passes and maintain a consistent distance. If a run appears, wait to dry then sand and reapply thin coats.
