XF-71 Cockpit Green Paint Details

The Tamiya 81771 XF-71 Cockpit Green comes in a 10ml bottle and uses a water-soluble acrylic resin that is straightforward to work with. It adheres to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and many model plastics, making it useful across diverse hobby projects.

Brush and Airbrush Performance

Whether you prefer brushing or airbrushing, XF-71 gives reliable coverage and a smooth finish. Its mixing properties allow careful tone adjustments for weathering and panel shading on models.

Best Thinners to Use with an Airbrush

For consistent airbrushing, use Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077 to maintain even flow and surface adhesion.

Do I need to prime plastic parts before using this paint?

Priming can improve finish and durability on some plastics. For best results, use a compatible primer designed for model plastics before applying XF-71.

How should I store an opened bottle?

Keep the bottle tightly sealed, store upright in a cool place away from direct sunlight, and avoid freezing to preserve the paint quality.

Can XF-71 be used on foam model parts?

Yes, the water-soluble acrylic formula is compatible with Styrofoam, but test on a scrap piece first to confirm surface reaction and finish.

Will this paint accept washes and weathering?

Yes, once cured, XF-71 accepts standard weathering techniques like washes and dry brushing. Seal with a clear coat if you plan heavier weathering.
