Tamiya 82142 LP-42 Mica Red Lacquer Model Paint 10ml  [82142]

Give Your Kit a Rich Metallic Finish with Tamiya LP-42

The LP-42 Mica Red Lacquer supplies a striking metallic red tone that enhances scale appearance and panel depth. Packaged as a 10ml bottle, it suits both fine brushwork and airbrushing setups used in detailed modelling.

Suitable for Many Model Types

Designed for a broad range of modelling projects, LP-42 forms a tough membrane that can act as a reliable basecoat. It stands up well under other paint layers and helps you build accurate colour depth without softening from subsequent coatings.

Uniform Tone for Realistic Effects

The mica particles and balanced pigment deliver consistent colour across both small components and larger surfaces, helping to recreate realistic metallic highlights and lowlights.

Usage Notes for Best Results

Thin with Tamiya lacquer thinner to control flow and finish, and remember that lacquer tones may appear different from acrylics and aerosols. Trial on a hidden area is recommended before full application.
