The Tamiya 82175 Buff Lacquer Paint is a go-to option for hobbyists aiming for authentic colour and texture on scale kits. This 10ml bottle is formulated for airbrushing and hand painting, delivering controllable flow for tiny details or broader coverage. Its stable tone and durable film make it a dependable base layer that stands up well under enamel overcoats.
Tamiya lacquer colours are favoured for their relatively fast drying times, helping keep build schedules moving. The Buffaloed membrane created by the lacquer adds toughness to finished parts, and while tones can vary slightly from Tamiya acrylics or sprays, the lacquer finish has its own subtle character many modellers prefer.
For best results, thin with Tamiya lacquer thinner to get the right viscosity for your airbrush or brush. Apply in light, even passes when working on military kits or scale figures; the Buff shade provides a muted, realistic base that layers well.
