Small-Format Acrylic for Models

The Tamiya 81506 Mini Acrylic X-6 Orange comes in a 10ml bottle designed for modelers needing a reliable orange tone. Its water-soluble acrylic base makes it friendly for brushwork and airbrush use, with good bonding to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, and commonly used plastics.

Brush and Airbrush Tips

Great for delicate detail as well as broader figure work, this acrylic thins predictably so you can dial in the right spray pattern. When airbrushing, use Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077 to achieve a stable consistency.

Why Builders Use It

Model builders favour the X-6 Orange for its strong pigmentation and ease of blending into existing paint schemes, making it a handy colour for restorations and custom jobs.

Is this paint okay for foam terrain pieces?

Yes, the water-based formula is safe for foam terrain and provides an even coat without dissolving the surface when applied sparingly.

Any advice for thinning ratios?

Start with a small amount of Tamiya thinner and increase until you have a smooth flow for your airbrush; ratios vary by equipment but aim for a milk-like consistency.

How should I store opened bottles?

Keep the bottle tightly closed, store upright in a cool place, and shake well before use to maintain pigment suspension and prevent skinning.
