The Tamiya 82157 - LP-57 Red Brown 2 comes in a 10ml bottle and delivers a classic red brown shade tailored to scale armour and vehicle work. Its tone is a good match for projects seeking a WWII German style finish or similar schemes.
Tamiya lacquers are designed to form a resilient layer that acts as an effective basecoat for subsequent paints. The film resists many enamel applications and holds up well during handling. Drying is comparatively quick to keep build time moving.
LP-57 flows evenly whether sprayed or applied by brush, offering strong coverage on larger panels and controlled opacity for fine details. That makes it a handy bottle to keep in your paint box.
Note that lacquer tones may not exactly match Tamiya acrylics or aeros of the same name. Using the recommended lacquer thinner will help you achieve smoother atomisation and the intended finish.
