Application Tips for Best Results

For AS spray cans, shake vigorously for two minutes before use and spray in light, sweeping passes from 8-12 inches away. Apply multiple thin coats rather than one heavy coat to prevent runs and achieve smooth coverage. Work in a well-ventilated area at room temperature for optimal results. For LP lacquer bottles, thin with Tamiya Lacquer Thinner for airbrushing or apply by brush for detail work. Always apply over properly prepared and primed surfaces for best adhesion. The fast-drying lacquer formula allows for quick masking and multi-color camouflage application. Clean airbrushes and tools with Tamiya Lacquer Thinner immediately after use.
