Overview

Tamiya X paints are acrylic paints that offer a glossy finish. They are water-soluble, easy to use, and suitable for most model plastics. They can be applied by brush or spray, and have a wide range of colours. Furthermore, they can be washed in plain water to prevent curing. Tamiya paints are ideal for hobbyists and modellers who want quality and versatility.
