Complete Your Tamiya Painting System

Proper paint preparation is the foundation of professional-quality scale model finishing. The products in this collection work seamlessly with Tamiya paints and airbrush equipment to deliver consistent, reliable results for every project.

Understanding Tamiya Thinners and Their Applications

The X-20A Acrylic Thinner is formulated specifically for Tamiya's acrylic paint line, providing optimal viscosity for both airbrush and hand-brush application. Available in convenient sizes from 10ml for testing to 250ml for larger projects, this thinner maintains paint adhesion and color integrity while preventing tip-dry during airbrushing sessions.

For lacquer-based finishes, the LP-10 Lacquer Thinner delivers the fast-drying, durable results that experienced modelers prefer for automotive finishes, aircraft canopies, and high-gloss applications. The lacquer system offers superior leveling and a harder final finish compared to acrylics.

Extending Working Time with Paint Retarder

The Tamiya Acrylic Paint Retarder is an essential tool for advanced painting techniques including wet-blending, gradient transitions, and weathering effects. By slowing the drying time of acrylic paints, retarder allows for smoother color transitions and reduces the visibility of brush strokes on larger surface areas.

Maintaining Your Airbrush Equipment

Regular cleaning with Tamiya Airbrush Cleaner extends the life of your airbrush and ensures consistent spray patterns. This specialized formula effectively removes both acrylic and lacquer paint residue without damaging seals, needles, or internal components. Proper maintenance between painting sessions prevents clogs and maintains optimal performance.

Tamiya Quality and Compatibility

Since 1946, Tamiya has been the gold standard in scale modeling supplies. These thinners, cleaners, and retarders are engineered to work in perfect harmony with Tamiya's complete paint system, ensuring predictable results and eliminating compatibility concerns. Whether you're building armor, aircraft, ships, or figures, these products provide the professional-grade performance that serious modelers require.
