Tamiya Colour Acrylic paints are solvent based acrylic paints used primarily for airbrushing. This combination results in a paint that is very easy to thin/ clean up for airbrushing and offers a wide range of colour tones with varying levels of luster. The product codes either end with an "X" or an "XF", being gloss and flat paints respectively.

Unlike water based paints, solvent based thinners is required. We recommend using Tamiya X-20A Acrylic Paint Thinners for this. When cleaning the airbrush either used the same thinners, or an alcohol based solvent such as methylated spirits or isopropyl alcohol. As always, when working with these paints and/ or any solvents always work in a well ventilated area, preferably with a vented airbrush booth and breathing gear.
