All-purpose Acrylic for Modellers

The Tamiya 81769 Mini Acrylic XF-69 NATO Black paint is a compact, water-based option for hobbyists who work on scale models and small projects. This 10ml bottle covers a range of materials including wood, Styrofoam and most modelling plastics, and it performs well with both brush painting and airbrushing.

Surface Suitability and Use

This acrylic has been formulated to flow evenly and give consistent coverage on compatible substrates. It is not recommended for untreated metal without primer, but it bonds well to styrol resins and standard modelling plastics. For airbrush users, use Tamiya thinners for best atomization and finish.

Mixing, Blending and Thinning Advice

Tamiya acrylics are straightforward to mix when creating custom shades and gradients. For airbrushing, use recommended Tamiya thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077 to reach the right consistency and surface quality.

Can I use this paint straight from the bottle for brushwork?

Yes, you can brush this acrylic directly from the bottle for small areas, though thinning slightly improves flow and reduces brush strokes. Use a few drops of water or a recommended thinner for smoother brush application.

Will Tamiya 81769 work on foam terrain pieces?

It is suitable for Styrofoam and similar hobby foams; test first if using solvents or thinners and avoid aggressive solvents that could melt the foam.

Which thinners give the best airbrush finish?

For airbrushing, Tamiya recommends thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, or 87077. Start with a small amount and adjust until you get a fine, even spray pattern.
