Blend-Ready Mixing Red for Detail Work

Tamiya LP-82 Mixing Red comes in a 10ml bottle and uses only red pigment to help modelers create precise shades without added cloudiness. It is equally at home on an airbrush for larger panels or applied with a brush for fine detailing, delivering even, dependable red tones.

Using LP-82 on Scale Models

The lacquer forms a tough membrane that makes it a useful basecoat resistant to enamel overcoats. Its relatively quick drying time supports efficient layering. For thinning and cleaning, rely on Tamiya Color lacquer thinner. Keep in mind that applying LP-82 directly over certain substrates without a sealer can sometimes allow undercolours to show.

Notes on Colour Matching

Due to lacquer chemistry, LP-82 Mixing Red may present a slightly different shade compared with Tamiya Color Acrylics or spray cans with the same name. Test mixes on scrap material when exact matching is required.

Yes. LP-82 works well thinned for airbrushing and straight or lightly thinned for brush work, depending on the level of detail and finish you want.
Not exactly. Lacquers and acrylics use different pigments and binders, so expect slight variations; always trial a sample to confirm the visual match under your chosen lighting.
Keep the bottle tightly sealed and stored upright in a cool, dry place away from heat or direct sunlight to maintain pigment stability and prevent skinning.
