Scale Accurate IJN Gray Finish

The Tamiya 82112 IJN Gray (Kure Arsenal) lacquer gives a faithful gray tone used on Imperial Japanese Navy vessels, useful for scale ship kits and dioramas. This 10ml bottle suits hobbyists aiming for historically consistent colour on small to medium models.

Airbrush or Hand Brush Application

Formulated for flexible use, this lacquer can be thinned for airbrushing or applied with a fine brush for detail work. Colour consistency helps maintain a unified finish across hulls, turrets and superstructures.

Reliable Basecoat and Fast Handling

The paint cures to a durable membrane that works well as a basecoat under enamel finishes. Its drying characteristics help reduce wait time between coats. For best results and smoother flow when airbrushing, use the recommended lacquer thinner sold separately.

Can I use this on styrene plastic models?

Yes. Tamiya lacquer paints like Tamiya 82112 bond well to standard styrene kits when applied over a clean surface and, if needed, an appropriate primer.

Do I need a specific thinner for airbrushing?

A dedicated lacquer thinner is recommended to thin Tamiya 82112 for spraying; it improves flow and atomisation compared with using no thinner.

Will it work as an undercoat for enamel paints?

Yes — this lacquer forms a tough layer that can serve as a stable base for subsequent enamel or acrylic topcoats, provided each layer is compatible and cured correctly.

How should I store unused paint?

Keep the bottle sealed and stored upright in a cool, ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the lacquer. Shake gently before use to rehomogenise the pigment.
