Tamiya 87116 Diorama Texture Paint Light Gray Concrete Effect  [87116]

Scale Concrete and Stone Texture from Tamiya 87116

For creating authentic groundwork in scale builds, the Tamiya 87116 Diorama Texture Paint in Light Gray gives a convincing concrete and stone appearance. It is aimed at modellers who want tactile pavement and walkway details.

Product Details and Use Cases

This diorama paint is supplied in a 100ml bottle and features a thick paste with ceramic specks that form a rough, raised texture. Being water-based it has a low odor and cleans up with water before curing.

Practical Application Tips

Because of its abrasive particles, apply using a spatula, palette knife, or a worn brush to avoid damaging good bristles. Mixing in small quantities of other Tamiya acrylics lets you adjust tone, and enamel washes help settle colour into the texture for realism.

Warnings and Best Practices

Do not use in an airbrush since the ceramic granules will clog and harm the system. Stick to manual spreading methods for controlled texture work.
