Controlled Viscosity for Enamel Paints

The Tamiya 80030 Enamel X-20 Thinner 40ml helps you reach a workable consistency for Tamiya enamel paints. It is designed for hobby use and keeps paint flow steady for fine detail or larger panels.

Application Tips

Use an initial dilution of about 2 parts thinner to 10 parts paint, then alter the mix slightly depending on whether you are using a brush or an airbrush to avoid runs and improve coverage.

Where to Use It

Suitable for common modelling surfaces such as plastic and wood, this thinner supports finishing work and small repairs. Avoid applying it directly to bare metal without a suitable undercoat.

No, enamel thinners are not designed for water based acrylics. Use a compatible thinner for acrylic systems to avoid poor adhesion or finish issues.
Yes, reducing enamel paint slightly improves brush flow—stick close to the recommended 2 to 10 starting point and test on scrap to get the feel you prefer.
Work in a well ventilated area and consider a respirator for extended spray sessions. Good airflow helps reduce fumes and keeps the working environment safe.
