Flat Base Painting with Tamiya X-21

The Tamiya 81521 Acrylic X-21 Flat Base is provided in a 10ml bottle and features a water-soluble acrylic resin designed for hobby use. It can be applied by brush or airbrush to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and common model plastics. The paint flows evenly and gives reliable coverage, which helps when creating matte effects or preparing a neutral base layer.

Airbrush Setup and Compatible Thinners

For uniform spray performance, thin the X-21 Flat Base before airbrushing. Use Tamiya thinners like 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 to maintain a stable viscosity and avoid spitting or clogging when using fine nozzles.

It works on many foam types, but patch-test first. Some foams may react differently, so confirm adhesion on a spare piece.
If applied evenly and allowed to dry, decals can be applied over the flat base. Seal with an appropriate clear layer if needed for protection.
Because the paint is water-soluble, clean tools with warm water and mild detergent, flushing until the water runs clear.
