Compact Gun Metal Acrylic for Hobby Projects

Tamiya's 81510 Mini Acrylic X-10 Gun Metal offers a small format paint for detailed modelling. This 10ml acrylic uses water-soluble resins, making it compatible with styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and many other common modelling plastics, and it lays down smoothly with either brush or airbrush application.

Workable Flow for Detailing

The Tamiya Mini Acrylic X-10 Gun Metal is easy to mix and shade, allowing precision when blending tones. If airbrushing, thin with approved Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 and trial on a spare piece to get the right spray consistency.

Helpful Answers

Is surface prep necessary before painting?

Yes. Clean and, when suitable, lightly sand plastic or wood surfaces and remove dust so the paint can grip and give a smooth finish.

Can I mix this with other acrylic paints?

It can be mixed with other water-soluble acrylics, but mix small test amounts first to check compatibility and colour before committing to larger blends.

What are simple airbrush tips for this paint?

Thin incrementally, keep the airbrush moving to avoid pooling, and build up thin layers for even coverage. Always test on scrap before painting a kit.

How should I store opened bottles?

Tightly reseal the cap, store upright in a cool place out of direct sunlight and avoid freezing to preserve the paint quality.
