Bring Out Highlights with Tamiya LP-43 Pearl White

Tamiya LP-43 Pearl White Lacquer Paint provides a lustrous pearl gloss that lifts highlights and panel lines on scale models. The 10ml format is handy for targeted airbrushing or precision brush painting, and the lacquer film forms a sturdy base that stands up to enamel layering.

Performance of Tamiya Lacquer Colours

Tamiya lacquers are prized for uniform pigmentation and reliable handling across aircraft, car and figure projects. They dry quicker than many solvent-based paints which helps with multi-coat workflows, though slight differences versus Tamiya acrylics and aerosols can occur.

Best Practices for Lacquer Use

When airbrushing, thin gradually with Tamiya lacquer thinner to achieve smooth atomisation. Keep coats light and allow brief flash times to preserve the pearl particles and avoid running.

It can be used over acrylic primers that are fully cured and sanded; compatibility tests are recommended to prevent lifting or softening.
Apply multiple thin, even coats and maintain the same thinning ratio to ensure pearl pigment is distributed uniformly across surfaces.
Use lacquer thinner in a well ventilated area, wear a suitable respirator and keep away from ignition sources due to solvent vapour.
Mixing with other Tamiya lacquer shades is possible, but mix small test batches first to confirm the resulting tone and pearl behaviour.
