XF-16 Flat Aluminium 10ml

Tamiya XF-16 Flat Aluminium 10 ml

An acrylic modeling paint in a matte aluminum shade from the Acrylic Mini range with a volume of 10 ml. It is a water-thinnable acrylic with a fine metallic pigment that gives the surface the look of matte, unpolished aluminum. It suits the metal areas of aircraft, engines, exhausts and other parts where a sober metallic look without pronounced gloss is wanted.

Use

• The acrylic paint is thinned with an acrylic thinner (type X-20A) or with water.
• It is applied with a brush as well as an airbrush; thin it for the airbrush.
• The metallic pigment settles to the bottom, so stir the paint before and during work.
• Metallics look better over a smooth base and are harder to paint over, so apply them rather toward the end.

Who it is for

For modelers of aircraft and other subjects who need a matte aluminum shade with convenient water-thinnable acrylic chemistry.

The paint is flammable, work in a ventilated space and keep it out of reach of children.
