Tamiya 85081 TS-81 British Navy Gray model spray

The Tamiya 85081 TS-81 British Navy Gray spray paint is a flexible option for builders aiming for an authentic naval finish on scale projects. It works well on static plastic kits and helps reproduce the subdued gray used on historical Royal Navy vessels, making it useful for WWII ship builds and display models.

Where this paint performs best

Each 100ml can of Tamiya TS-81 covers enough area for most small to medium kits. The aerosol format is tuned for even laydown, so modelers can obtain a smooth coat with light, overlapping passes. The cap is color coded to speed up shade selection when working through a stash of paints.

Achieving credible naval tones

For hobbyists focused on period accuracy, TS-81 British Navy Gray provides a convincing base tone for deck and hull work. It pairs well with weathering techniques and can be used under washes and drybrushing to enhance scale realism.

No. The TS series is formulated for hard plastic model kits and static displays. For polycarbonate RC bodies use paints specifically labelled for lexan or polycarbonate.
Spray in thin, even passes from about 20-30 cm, allowing each thin coat to flash off before adding the next. Multiple light coats reduce runs and give a smoother result than one heavy coat.
Clean parts of dust and oils, sand any seams, and use a primer suited to polystyrene. Good surface prep ensures adhesion and prevents orange peel.
