Tamiya 80001 Enamel X-1 Black - Compact Enamel for Hobby Projects

The Tamiya 80001 Enamel X-1 Black is a compact enamel suited to hobbyists who need a dependable black for small to medium projects. It adheres well to typical modelling materials including wood and plastic, and comes in a 10ml bottle for precision work.

Getting an Even Coat with Enamel

For a consistent finish when spraying, thin enamel before use. A common mix is two parts thinner to ten parts paint as a starting guideline. Thinning this way helps achieve a uniform layer and reduces the chance of orange peel or sagging.

Good for Many Model Applications

While not targeted at RC car shells specifically, Enamel X-1 Black is versatile for scale builds, scenery pieces and touch ups. The deep black pigment enhances fine detail and contrast across many hobby surfaces.

With proper cleaning and a light keying of the surface, the enamel bonds well to many resins. Test on a scrap piece first if unsure.
Apply several thin coats rather than a single heavy one, and allow each layer to dry fully before adding the next. Use a soft, high quality brush for best results.
If the painted part will see handling or weathering, consider a compatible clear enamel or lacquer topcoat to protect the finish and enhance durability.
