Neutral Grey Enamel for Scale Models

This Tamiya 80353 XF-53 Neutral Grey enamel gives a balanced grey tone that suits aircraft, armour and vehicle kits. Apply over primed plastic or sealed wood for consistent results and predictable layering.

Brush and Airbrush Guidance

The compact 10ml bottle of XF-53 is handy for detail work and small spray jobs. For spraying, thin with enamel thinner at around 2 parts thinner to 10 parts paint and test on a spare sprue to fine tune flow.

Finish Qualities and Weathering

Tamiya enamels provide steady pigmentation and an even surface that accepts washes, filters and pigments well, making XF-53 a practical base shade for layered finishing techniques.

You can topcoat with an acrylic clear after the enamel has fully cured; always spot test to confirm compatibility between products.
Fine synthetic or sable brushes suit detail work, while larger flat brushes handle panel areas; choose brushes that give you control without overworking the paint.
Keep bottles tightly sealed, store upright in a cool place away from direct light and check lids for seal integrity before putting away.
Tamiya enamels can be blended to achieve custom tones, but mix small test batches to verify colour and consistency before committing to larger mixes.
