Wipe-on gloss and protection for painted kits

Tamiya 87151 Gloss Coating Varnish is a 10ml water-based finish aimed at improving gloss and surface durability on completed model paintwork. It works over gloss coatings to offer a protective layer that reduces fingerprinting and light wear.

What it does for your paintwork

The varnish enhances shine and helps conceal small scuffs and abrasions. It tends to give a richer look on darker shades by increasing surface reflectivity. Apply with a soft cloth in thin passes for the most even appearance.

How much you get and usage tips

Each 10ml bottle should handle around fifteen 1/24 scale models when used sparingly. Always ensure the paint is fully dry and free of dust before applying, and allow adequate cure time after application.

As a water-based clearcoat, it is formulated to remain clear. Proper storage and avoiding excessive heat will help prevent any long term discolouration.
Yes, light successive coats can increase gloss, but allow each coat to dry fully before applying the next to avoid streaking or clouding.
It offers extra resistance to handling marks, but for frequently handled models consider combining with careful handling and periodic touch-ups to maintain the finish.
