Flat Green for Models and Scenery

This water-soluble acrylic, Tamiya 81305 XF-5 Flat Green, is formulated for hobby use and works well with both brushes and airbrushes. It spreads smoothly on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and many standard modelling plastics. The 23ml bottle is ideal for painting trims, small panels and scenic elements.

Where to Use It

Use XF-5 Flat Green for kit parts, diorama foliage and fine detailing. Its flat characteristic helps reduce shine and gives a consistent surface that is easy to weather or layer with washes.

Is this suitable for RC body painting?

This acrylic is not ideal for flexible polycarbonate RC shells. For RC bodies look for paints made specifically for polycarbonate to ensure durability and flexibility.

Can I use it over other acrylics?

It generally layers well over other cured acrylics; spot-test first to confirm compatibility and avoid mixing incompatible solvents.

What is the best way to apply weathering?

Apply thin base coats and use washes or drybrushing on top for weathered effects. Seal with a compatible clear if you want to protect the finish before heavy handling.

How should I clean airbrushes after use?

Flush the airbrush with water if you used water thinning, or with an appropriate cleaner if you used stronger thinners. Disassemble and clean needle and nozzle periodically.
