The Tamiya 81756 XF-56 Metallic Grey is a 10ml water-based acrylic designed for model makers wanting a subtle metallic grey. Suitable for brushwork or airbrushing, it applies smoothly to styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood and common modelling plastics, delivering even coverage and straightforward blending.
When using an airbrush, thin XF-56 with Tamiya recommended thinners such as 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 or 87077 to obtain consistent spray patterns and a clean metallic finish. Correct thinning reduces orange peel and improves adhesion on textured parts.
Its water-based formula and ease of use make this paint a go-to option for general modelling tasks. Builders appreciate its dependable coverage and the tidy cleanup that water-based acrylics allow.
