Improve Airbrush Flow with Tamiya 87194

Tamiya 87194 Lacquer Thinner (Retarder Type) is supplied in a 250ml bottle and is intended for use with Tamiya Color lacquer paints. It provides a controlled slowdown in drying to aid smoother application and finish.

Managing Dry Times for Cleaner Coats

The retarder slows surface drying so paint has more time to level after spraying, which helps prevent problems like blushing in moist environments. A common mix is 1 part paint to 1-2 parts thinner, adjusted for personal technique and airbrush setup.

Best Uses on Model Projects

Use this thinner when working on kits that require flawless lacquer layers, such as scale vehicles and aircraft. It supports even coverage and reduces the risk of premature skinning on the paint surface.

It thins lacquer and slows drying without heavily thinning the body of the paint when used at recommended ratios. Adjust gradually to reach the right spray viscosity.
It is not intended as a cleaning solvent. Use a dedicated airbrush cleaner or appropriate solvent for cleaning to avoid residue or damage.
Use in a ventilated area, wear a respirator and gloves, and keep away from flames. Follow local safety guidance for handling solvents.
Yes, the retarder formulation helps in humid conditions by slowing surface cure and reducing the chance of moisture related defects like blushing.
