FAQ

Bright Metallic Colour in a Small Bottle

The Tamiya 82146 LP-46 Pure Metallic Red is a lacquer paint offering a striking metallic sheen suitable for scale kits and custom parts. The 10ml bottle is convenient for both full panels and small touch ups, delivering a glossy, stable finish.

Resilient Film and Basecoat Use

This lacquer forms a tough surface layer that makes it useful as a basecoat for further finishing. Its cured film stands up to routine handling and helps subsequent paint layers adhere properly.

Optimising Spray or Brush Application

Whether you are spraying or brushing, use the recommended lacquer thinner to reach the correct flow. Adjust thinning to match your airbrush or brush style to avoid runs and ensure smooth coverage.

Variation From Acrylic Variants

Note that lacquer formulations like LP-46 may look different from Tamiya acrylics or spray versions with the same label. These differences let you pick the right finish for the effect you want.

How should I store opened LP-46 bottles?

Keep the bottle tightly sealed, store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight, and label any opened containers to track age.

Can LP-46 be mixed with other lacquer paints?

Lacquers of the same base type can usually be blended, but mix small test batches first to check colour and drying behaviour before committing to a larger mix.
