Finish Guide for Tamiya PS-40 Translucent Pink

The Tamiya PS-40 Translucent Pink is supplied in a 100ml aerosol for use on polycarbonate RC bodies, applied from the inside to achieve a uniform translucent tint. Keep the can at around 30cm from the workpiece and apply several light coats, letting each level set before adding the next to deepen the colour evenly.

Preparing and Detailing the Shell

For precise trim and window work, apply Tamiya polycarbonate bottle paints to small areas before spraying. This method preserves crisp lines and keeps the sprayed areas consistent.

Performance Against Oils and Fuels

This spray is formulated to resist oils and fuels, making it a suitable choice for models that are exposed to such substances while running.

Does PS-40 require a primer?

No primer is needed for clean polycarbonate shells; simply ensure the surface is free of grease and dust before spraying.

How many coats give full coverage?

Typically two to three light coats achieve solid translucent colour, depending on the desired intensity and shell thickness.

Any tips for avoiding runs?

Keep the can moving, apply thin layers, and allow brief drying between passes. If a run appears, wait for full cure then level lightly with fine polishing suitable for polycarbonate.

Can I store unused cans long term?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and frost. Check the can for nozzle blockages before reuse if stored for long periods.
