Tamiya 82120 LP-20 Light Gun Metal Gloss Lacquer Paint 10ml Bottle Classic Finish  [82120]

Overview of Light Gun Metal Lacquer for Model Builders

This 10ml lacquer is tuned for model makers seeking a realistic metallic sheen. The Tamiya 82120 LP-20 Light Gun Metal lacquer works well for both broad airbrushing and careful brush details.

Tough, Fast Drying Lacquer

The lacquer formula forms a strong membrane that makes a solid basecoat and resists enamel overcoats. Its relatively quick dry time keeps build schedules moving and reduces handling marks.

Stable Colour and Layering

Expect slightly different tone shifts compared with acrylics or spray cans, but the lacquer line maintains consistent colour and good vibrancy for realistic metal effects.

Thinning and Application Notes

For best control, use a dedicated lacquer thinner to adjust viscosity before airbrushing or brushing. Proper thinning helps avoid runs and improves surface smoothness.
