Smooth Finish Acrylic for Scale Models

The Tamiya XF-80 British Navy Gray is supplied in a 10ml bottle and gives a dependable, satin style finish for hobby builds. It suits close-up detailing as well as filling larger panel areas when applied correctly.

Surfaces and Uses

Apply this acrylic to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and other common modelling plastics. Its water-based formulation makes layering and feathering straightforward for weathering and touch ups.

Preparing for Airbrushing

When airbrushing, dilute with compatible Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 to ensure stable atomisation and smooth coverage. Proper thinning reduces clogging and improves finish evenness.

Very quick and friendly service! Will definitely order again.

Is XF-80 safe for foam terrain pieces?

Yes. XF-80 works with Styrofoam and similar foams, but always test on a scrap piece to confirm there is no adverse reaction with the specific foam you are using.

How should I thin for airbrush use?

Thin XF-80 with approved Tamiya thinners listed on the label until the paint flows smoothly through your airbrush. Adjust thinning gradually to match your airbrush setup and nozzle size.

Will this paint block fine details?

If applied too thickly it can obscure small details. Use thin coats and build up coverage to preserve panel lines and raised features.

What finish can I expect?

XF-80 provides a low to medium sheen typical of Tamiya acrylics, suitable as a base for further weathering or clearcoating.
