Tamiya TS-79 Semi Gloss Clear Lacquer Spray 100ml
The Tamiya TS-79 Semi Gloss Clear is a 100ml synthetic lacquer spray paint designed for use on plastic model kits and large model surfaces. It provides a semi-gloss clear top coat finish, allowing modelers to convert gloss paint finishes to a semi-gloss appearance.
Key Features
-
Semi-Gloss Clear Finish: Provides a semi-gloss top coat over cured paint finishes.
-
Synthetic Lacquer Formula: Fast-curing synthetic lacquer suitable for large model surfaces.
-
Compatible with Acrylics and Enamels: Not affected by acrylic or enamel paints, allowing detail work with those mediums after application.
-
100ml Can Coverage: Each can contains enough paint to fully cover approximately 2–3 1/24 scale car model bodies.
-
Gloss-to-Semi-Gloss Conversion: Useful for achieving a semi-gloss finish on paints that are only available in gloss.
-
Not for Polycarbonate: Not designed for use on clear polycarbonate/Lexan R/C body shells; Tamiya PS sprays should be used for those applications.
Usage Notes
- Allow the underlying paint to fully cure before applying TS-79 to prevent cracking from differing cure rates.
- Best results are achieved by allowing up to one week of cure time.
- Test over decals before applying to a finished project, as clear coat can affect some decals.
