Restore Shine with Tamiya PC-12 Silver

The Tamiya 82012 Polycarbonate PC-12 Silver is crafted for RC car shells, producing a bright metallic finish. It is suited to hobbyists aiming for a showroom look without complex prep.

Optimised for Polycarbonate Shells

Engineered to adhere to polycarbonate, this silver paint delivers consistent coverage and toughness. The finish keeps its reflective quality through regular handling and moderate outdoor use.

Why Tamiya PC-12 Works Well

Material Compatibility: Specifically made for polycarbonate body shells for correct adhesion.
Durable Finish: Stands up to routine use and light abrasion while preserving shine.
Clean Metallic Look: Leaves a uniform, glossy surface that highlights body contours.

Do I need to thin the paint before spraying?

Light thinning can help when using a spray gun or airbrush. Follow spray equipment guidance and apply several thin coats rather than one heavy coat.

Is it suitable for outdoor running?

Yes, the formula maintains colour and gloss outdoors under normal conditions, though prolonged exposure to harsh elements will eventually affect any finish.

How long before I can reassemble the body?

Allow sufficient drying time as per spray method; typically wait until the paint is fully cured to avoid marking when fitting bodies to chassis.
