All-purpose enamel for model kits

Tamiya 80003 Enamel X-3 Royal Blue offers a tough enamel finish that works well on plastic kits and light wood projects. The 10ml bottle size is handy for touch ups and fine detail work, giving a smooth, satin surface when applied correctly.

Brush and spray instructions

You can use this enamel with a fine brush or with an airbrush/spray gun. For spraying, start with a mix of two parts thinner to ten parts paint and adjust for your setup to get an even, clog-free spray.

Is this paint suitable for detailed plastic models?

Yes. Tamiya 80003 lays down thin, controllable coats that are ideal for small parts and panel lines. Light sanding and a primer will improve adhesion on hard plastics.

What thinner should I use for airbrushing?

Use an enamel-specific thinner. The recommended starting ratio is two parts thinner to ten parts paint; reduce or increase thinner to suit your airbrush nozzle and pressure.

How do I clean brushes and store leftovers?

Clean brushes with enamel thinner in a well ventilated area. Keep the bottle sealed and stored upright in a cool place to preserve the paint between sessions.
