High-Impact Flake Finish for Polycarbonate Shells

The Tamiya PS-53 Lame Flake Spray is designed specifically for polycarbonate RC car bodies. The 100ml aerosol produces a bright, eye-catching result that stands up to rough driving and frequent handling.

Best Practice for Even Coverage

Spray from the inside of the body at roughly 30cm to get uniform coverage and to avoid drips. Multiple thin coats will build depth and increase the sparkle, with time to cure between each pass for a smoother outcome.

Robust Against Oils and Fuels

Tamiya PS-53 Lame Flake Spray is formulated to resist oils and typical fuels used in RC. For fine details and panel lines, apply Tamiya bottle paints suitable for polycarbonate before the spray layers.

Is primer needed before using this spray on lexan bodies

For polycarbonate you normally do not need a primer. Clean and degrease the surface, then apply the spray from the inside for best adhesion.

Can I mix this with other Tamiya PS colours for custom effects

You cannot mix aerosols directly, but you can layer compatible PS series colours on top of each other once each layer is dry to create custom looks.

Will the flakes show through darker base coats

Flake density and visibility depend on underlying colour and thickness. Lighter or metallic bases help the lame flakes pop more than very dark bases.

How should I store unused cans

Keep cans upright in a cool, dry place away from direct heat. Shake well before use and avoid freezing temperatures.
