Precision finishing using Tamiya triangular swabs

The Tamiya Craft Cotton Swab (Triangular, Extra Small) is an essential tool for modellers focused on neat decals and crisp detail. The dense, shaped cotton tip resists deformation when used with thinners, allowing for steady, fine work on small components.

Advantages over regular cotton buds

Made for kit building, the triangular form gives defined points and edges you can use for pinpoint cleaning and controlled weathering. It complements common weathering sets when you need accuracy on tiny panels.

Uses around the bench

  • Precise decal placement and removal of excess adhesive
  • Defining and cleaning panel lines
  • Applying small scale rust or dirt streaks
Dab a lightly moistened swab with the appropriate solvent and gently roll or blot the paint spot until it lifts without disturbing surrounding paint.
They are generally single use for very fine tasks, but for light cleaning you can reuse a swab until it becomes soiled or loses shape.
Use the narrow point to trace along the recessed line, and the flat edge to wipe away excess wash for a clean result.
