Vibrant Lacquer Finish with Tamiya LP-44 Metallic Orange

Tamiya LP-44 Metallic Orange Lacquer Paint provides a lively metallic orange option for hobbyists who want extra sheen on scale models. The lacquer comes in a 10ml bottle and works well for airbrushing larger panels or careful brush detail. Its strong lacquer chemistry makes it a solid basecoat choice that stands up to enamel paints and dries relatively fast for efficient builds.

Benefits for Model Builders

The LP-44 Metallic Orange is built for dependable results as well as looks. It forms a tough film that helps protect detailed paintwork, making it a go-to for modellers wanting consistent finishing. Keep in mind the hue can vary slightly from Tamiya acrylics and spray cans due to the lacquer formulation.

Practical Application Advice

For best results, thin with Tamiya's recommended lacquer thinner to reach the right spray viscosity. Whether finishing a compact sports car kit or restoring small parts, the LP-44's bold colour enhances painted surfaces when applied with patience and proper technique.

Use a fine to medium airbrush and thin the lacquer with Tamiya lacquer thinner for a smooth atomisation. Start with light passes to avoid runs and build thin layers.
Clean parts to remove mold release and oils, apply a suitable primer, and sand lightly where needed to give the lacquer a good surface to adhere to.
LP-44 is often used as a basecoat and shows good resistance when paired with enamel finishes, but test on a scrap before full application to confirm compatibility.
