About product

Tamiya XF-28 Dark Copper 10 ml (Acrylic MINI)

A Tamiya acrylic modeling paint from the Acrylic MINI range in a bottle with a volume of 10 ml. It is not a kit — you are buying the paint on its own. Tamiya's naming follows a simple rule: the X range is gloss, the XF range is matte. XF-28 therefore dries matte, even though it contains fine metallic pigment: the result is a dark, rather subdued copper tone with no mirror shine — the look of copper that has been in service for a while.

Use

  • copper piping, boilers, plumbing and fittings on models of machinery and ships
  • historical ships — copper sheathing below the waterline, deck fittings
  • exhausts, mufflers and heat-affected metal parts
  • weathered, aged or oxidized metal on dioramas, figures and accessories
  • toning other metallic shades toward a warmer, coppery tone

How to work with it

Apply the paint with an airbrush or a brush; for spraying, thin it with acrylic thinner X-20A — note that X-20 is a thinner for enamels and is not suited to this paint. Three extra things apply to metallics: the metal pigment settles to the bottom, so stir the bottle thoroughly before and during use; metallics cover better and more evenly on a smooth, finished surface, since every scratch and unevenness underneath will show through; and they are harder to overcoat with further layers, so save the copper details for the last step of your painting process.

Who it is for

For modelers of historical ships and steam equipment, diorama builders, and anyone dealing with realistic metal — from copper piping through exhausts to weathered metal parts.

Use in a well-ventilated area. Protect your airways (a respirator) when spraying with an airbrush. Keep out of the reach of children.

FAQ

Matte. For Tamiya, X marks the gloss range and XF the matte range — so XF-28 dries matte, even though it contains a metallic copper pigment.

Tamiya's acrylic thinner X-20A. Do not confuse it with X-20, which is meant for enamel paints. It can be applied with an airbrush or a brush.

The metallic pigment is heavier and settles to the bottom of the bottle. Without mixing, your brush or airbrush would mostly deliver binder with no metallic effect.

The bottle contains 10 ml — the Acrylic MINI size, which usually lasts a very long time on details like piping or exhausts.
