Masking Fluid Designed for Complex Shapes

The Tamiya 87229 Masking Fluid is tailored to model makers working with curved panels and intricate details where tape cant reach. The formula in the bottle is light green and helps reduce dripping for a cleaner application.

Step by Step Application Guide

Begin by degreasing the surface with a detergent to remove oils. Apply the masking fluid from the bottle and let it dry completely. Once set, trim away the areas you do not want masked and proceed to paint using Tamiya Color paints. After the topcoat has cured, carefully lift off the masking fluid to reveal sharp paint lines.

Why Model Makers Prefer This Product

For hobbyists tackling complicated components, this masking fluid simplifies blocking out fine areas and difficult contours. The ease of application and clean removal helps save time during detailing and finishing stages.

Will this stick to plastics and painted parts?

When surfaces are cleaned first, the masking fluid adheres well to common modelling plastics and previously painted areas. Always test on a scrap piece if unsure.

Can I airbrush over the masked area?

Yes, once the masking fluid is fully dry you can airbrush over it. It is commonly used with Tamiya Color airbrush paints for controlled results.

How should I store the bottle?

Keep the bottle upright with the cap tightly closed and store in a cool, dry place. This helps prevent the fluid from thickening or drying out between uses.
