Refine Lacquer Coats with Tamiya 87198

Scale modellers can use the Tamiya 87198 Paint Retarder to slow the cure of lacquer paints and encourage a smoother finish. Its effect helps to lessen brush marks and allows paint films to level more evenly.

Suggested Mixing and Handling

Combine the retarder with lacquer paints at ratios up to 1:10 (retarder to paint). Modify the amount to suit brush or spray techniques and always trial a mix before working on the main model.

Volume and Typical Uses

Presented in a 40ml bottle, the retarder is suited to a variety of modelling uses, including vehicle kits and painted figures where lacquer paints are preferred.
