Light Green Coverage for Plastic Model Kits

The Tamiya 85022 TS-22 Light Green aerosol is a synthetic acrylic lacquer developed for hobby use, drying to a smooth surface suitable for decals and further detailing. A single 100ml can generally covers two to three 1/24 scale plastic car shells, making it efficient for kit builds.

Layering and Finish

After the paint has fully cured, you can apply acrylic or enamel paints over the finish without adverse reactions. That makes it easy to build complex colour schemes and add fine highlights or weathering.

Surface Preparation

Start with a clean, dust-free surface and shake the can well before spraying. Apply several light coats rather than one heavy coat and allow adequate drying time between layers to reduce bubbling or sagging.

Yes, the lacquer bonds well to common modelling plastics like polystyrene and ABS when surfaces are clean and lightly keyed. Avoid using it on polycarbonate body shells.
Wait until the paint has cured sufficiently before applying masking tape to prevent lifting. Use low tack tape and remove it slowly to keep edges sharp.
A clear lacquer can protect the finish and boost gloss or matte appearance depending on the clear used. Apply after the base colour is fully dry.
Most builders use two to three thin coats to achieve even coverage and depth of colour. Allow each coat to flash off before applying the next.
