Tamiya 86048 PS-48 Metallic Silver 100ml Polycarbonate Spray  [86048]

Polished Metallic Finish for RC Shells by Tamiya

The Tamiya 86048 PS-48 Metallic Silver spray is formulated to add a refined metallic sheen to polycarbonate RC car bodies. This 100ml aerosol is aimed at hobbyists who want a consistent, professional look when painting the inside of clear shells.

Practical Application Tips

Always spray from inside the polycarbonate shell for the best adhesion and shine. Hold the can roughly 30cm from the surface and apply light, even passes to avoid runs. After the first coat dries, add a second thin layer to boost the metallic depth. For fine accents, pair with compatible brush-on paints made for polycarbonate.

Performance and Resistance

The PS-48 formulation is made to handle the usual stresses of RC use, including occasional contact with oils and fuels. It is a good option for nitro or gas-powered rigs where a tougher finish helps preserve the paint job during active runs.
