Controlled Airbrush Thinning with Tamiya 81520 X-20A

Hobbyists who need predictable spray behaviour can rely on the Tamiya 81520 X-20A Acrylic Thinner to fine tune paint consistency. It is tailored to work with Tamiya acrylic paints for smooth atomisation through small nozzles.

Consistent Viscosity for Layering

Using the correct thinner ratio keeps Tamiya acrylics flowing steadily, which helps with feathering and soft transitions on small details. Proper thinning reduces the chance of graininess and helps with even drying.

Small Format for Precision Mixing

The 10ml bottle lets you add measured amounts into test cups or jars, making it easy to trial mixes without affecting your main paint stock. Its size suits bench-top work and kit-building sessions.

What thinning ratio should I try for an airbrush?

Start with small steps, such as 5-10% thinner by volume, then adjust based on nozzle size and air pressure. Do a test spray on scrap material before painting the model.

Will this help with fine detail spraying?

Yes, when properly thinned for your airbrush setup, the X-20A helps achieve finer atomisation and cleaner lines on small-scale details.

How long does an opened bottle stay usable?

When kept sealed and stored away from heat, the thinner remains usable for many months; always inspect for clarity before use and discard if contamination appears.
