Tamiya 82148 LP-48 Sparkling Silver 10ml Model Lacquer  [82148]

Vivid Sparkle for Hobby Builds

Tamiya LP-48 Sparkling Silver is engineered for modellers looking for a bright, sparkling silver finish. In a compact 10ml bottle, it offers a stronger shine than LP-11 and works well for fine details or larger areas when sprayed. The lacquer hardens into a durable layer that can act as a basecoat and accepts enamel topcoats under normal preparation.

Lacquer Qualities for Modellers

The Tamiya lacquer line is valued for steady coverage and vivid metallic tones. LP-48 gives a realistic chrome-like appearance and forms a resilient membrane suited to handling and display models.

Practical Application Notes

Use Tamiya lacquer thinner to achieve smooth spraying and correct flow for your airbrush. Keep in mind lacquer colours can vary from equivalent acrylic or spray versions, so test on a spare panel before full application.
