Tamiya LP-81 Mixing Blue is a lacquer paint made for modellers who blend bespoke colours. The 10ml bottle suits both airbrush use and fine brush applications, and the formula minimises clouding when mixing with other lacquers so you can nail subtle tones.
Use this paint on scale kits and display figures where customised shades are needed. It thins well with Tamiya Color lacquer thinner for spraying, though you can brush it directly from the bottle for detail work. Be cautious applying straight coats over thin or delicate finishes to avoid lifting lower layers.
The lacquer builds a hard membrane that serves as a durable basecoat and holds up under enamel layers. Fast drying allows efficient layering and helps when adding crisp highlights and weathering effects.
