Authentic Zimmerit Finish for Late Tiger I Models

Serious modellers value accuracy, and the Tamiya 12653 1/48 Zimmerit Coating Sheet captures the anti-magnetic coating pattern found on late Tiger I tanks. It offers a straightforward alternative to hand-applied putty techniques while keeping the correct scale texture.

Quick to Fit, Easy to Paint

Designed to complement Tamiya's 1/48 German Tiger I Late Production kit (Item 32575), these pre-textured sheets are simple to align and stick in place. Once set, paint over the surface to blend the Zimmerit with your chosen camouflage scheme.

Great for Display-Quality Builds

This accessory is ideal for builders who want museum-style accuracy without prolonged texturing work. Use it to speed up the build while maintaining a convincing period finish.

Specifications

Compatibility depends on the part profile; test fit the sheet against any aftermarket plates and trim where necessary for a flush fit.
Careful cutting around rivets and folding at edges helps maintain pattern continuity; use a sharp hobby knife and small sanding where needed.
Yes, powders and pastels work well after sealing with a matte varnish, letting you add realistic dust and grime to the textured surface.
