Dax415 Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Just as it says, bought the clear from a local hobby shop that finally stocked Tamiya products but have no idea on how to use it. What are the ratios to mix it and what do I mix it with? Tamiya thinner? Water? The flat is less liquid like, so does it take a different ratio? Thanks!

Kurt Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 The Tamiya flat is ment to be added to paint to make them flat. If you spray it unmixed you will turn your model a chalky white, which I am sure is not your goal. The gloss can be sprayed by itself, just thin it with either alcohol or Tamiya thinner. Thin just like you would paint. I never record by exact ratios, just mix until it sprays nice and smooth. I would suggest using Polyscale flat. It needs very little thinning and gives a dead flat finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
