Sharper detail work with a flat modelling brush

Model builders aiming for neat trim and fine highlights will find the Tamiya 87158 - Modeling Brush HG Flat Brush (Small) useful for precision tasks. It helps you lay down consistent strokes on small panels and fiddly areas.

Bristle stability and consistent lines

The Tamiya 87158 is fitted with Japanese PBT resin bristles that resist splaying and keep a narrow profile over time. That controlled taper helps you pull clean edges and tiny strokes without losing paint control.

Designed for comfortable handling

The brush handle is shaped for a confident grip so you can steady your hand for tiny details and longer painting sessions with less fatigue.

Can I use the Tamiya 87158 for weathering and washes?

Yes, the brush can be used for shading, washes and controlled weathering when you load it with thinned paint and use light, deliberate strokes.

Will the synthetic bristles handle solvents?

PBT bristles tolerate normal model solvents and cleaners better than some natural hairs, but always rinse and clean promptly after solvent use to protect the ferrule and handle.

Is this brush good for painting small cockpit details?

Yes, its small flat profile and tapered tip make the Tamiya 87158 well suited to cockpit panels, instrument faces and other tight spots on scale kits.

How should I store the brush between uses?

Rinse out paint, reshape the tip, and store upright or laid flat where the fibres are not bent to preserve the tip profile.
