Tamiya TS-39 Mica Red Paint Summary

The TS-39 Mica Red from Tamiya is a synthetic acrylic lacquer developed for model builders who need a smooth, even finish. Its rapid drying characteristics help when tackling larger surfaces, and one 100ml can usually covers about two to three 1/24 scale plastic car bodies.

Application and Surface Compatibility

TS-39 is compatible with many commonly used hobby paints, including acrylic and enamel undercoats, when those underlayers are fully cured. Apply in light passes and maintain appropriate ventilation while spraying.

Will TS-39 stick to polycarbonate RC bodies?

No, TS-39 is not suitable for polycarbonate. For polycarbonate shells use the Tamiya PS series which is formulated for that material.

Can I clearcoat over TS-39?

Yes, once TS-39 is fully cured you can apply compatible clear lacquers. Test on a scrap panel first to ensure compatibility and avoid softening of the base coat.

Any tips for even coverage?

Use multiple thin coats rather than a single heavy pass, keep the can 20-30 cm from the surface, and allow short flash-off periods between layers for a uniform finish.
