All-Purpose Tamiya XF-57 Buff for Scale Work

Tamiya XF-57 Buff comes in a compact 23ml bottle and uses water-soluble acrylic resins for easy handling. It is suitable for airbrush and brush applications and lays down even coats on styrene, wood and other common modelling plastics.

Good Adhesion Across Materials

XF-57 Buff is designed to adhere well to styrol resins, Styrofoam and wooden components. Its consistency promotes smooth coverage and makes feathering and colour transitions straightforward for custom finishes.

Cleaner Workflow

Because this acrylic is water-mixable, thinning and cleaning brushes are simple tasks using water, which is ideal when working on intricate kit sections. The paint is friendly for newcomers while still meeting the needs of seasoned hobbyists.

Will XF-57 stick to resin parts?

Yes. After cleaning and, if needed, priming resin parts, XF-57 Buff will adhere well and provide good coverage.

What is the best way to thin this paint for airbrush use?

Start with small amounts of water and increase until the paint flows smoothly through your airbrush. Always spray a test panel first.

Can I mix this with other acrylic colours?

Yes, XF-57 mixes with other water-based acrylics for custom shades, but mix small test batches to confirm colour and performance.

Is it suitable for painting foam terrain?

Yes. Its formulation works on Styrofoam, but test first to ensure the surface does not react to the paint.
