Accurate Finishing with the Tamiya 87014 Flat Brush

The Tamiya 87014 Flat Brush No.3 is aimed at model builders who need consistent results across medium surfaces. It helps produce an even base coat and smooth transitions on body panels and accessories.

Natural Horse Hair for Controlled Paint Flow

Constructed from fine horse hair sourced in China and the USA, the bristles retain paint effectively and distribute it evenly. The off-white colour reduces visible streaking and keeps control when applying thin layers.

Comfortable Handle and Practical Dimensions

The wooden handle gives a steady, natural grip for longer sessions and carries a burgundy imprint for easy recognition. At 8-1/2 inches long with a 5/16 inch bristle width, the brush balances reach with precision for RC painting chores.

Is this brush suitable for fine trim work?

While sized for medium areas, the flat edge can be used for light trim and careful edge work with a steady hand.

What maintenance keeps the brush in good shape?

Rinse after each use with the correct cleaner, avoid soaking the wooden handle, and store the brush bristle-up or flat to keep the tip intact.

Can I use it with thinned paints?

Yes, it handles thinned acrylics and enamels, but test stroke behaviour first to match thinning to your technique.

Will the bristles hold up to repeated use?

With proper cleaning and storage the natural horse hair maintains shape and paint retention through many sessions.
