Tamiya 82118 LP-18 Dull Red Lacquer for Scale Crafting

The Tamiya 82118 LP-18 Dull Red lacquer offers a restrained red tone often used on classic vessels and scale machinery. Supplied in a 10ml flat bottle, it suits both airbrushing and brush painting, making it practical for kit builders and restorers alike.

Coverage and Durability

This lacquer gives even colour laydown whether covering broad surfaces or refining trim pieces. It cures to a robust membrane that stands up to handling and can form a stable base for enamel topcoats.

Matching and Application Tips

LP-18 might differ slightly from Tamiya acrylic or spray lines carrying the same name; carry out a test patch to confirm. For best atomisation and finish use a lacquer specific thinner and adjust dilution to suit your tool.

Yes, once fully cured the lacquer provides a stable surface for decals. For best results, apply decals after the paint has hardened and consider a light gloss coat under waterslide decals.
Lacquer bases generally accept enamel layers, but check compatibility on a scrap piece first. Allow the lacquer to cure fully before applying enamel topcoats.
Use low tack masking tape and ensure the base coat is dry to the touch before applying tape. Remove tape slowly and at a low angle to preserve crisp demarcation.
