Durable Gun Metal Finish for RC Shells

The Tamiya 86023 PS-23 Gun Metal spray is aimed at RC modelers who want a steady, metallic finish on polycarbonate bodies. The 100ml format is convenient for single shells or touch up work across a few models.

Best Practice for Spraying Polycarbonate

Apply from the inside of the body at about 30cm distance, using light, even passes to prevent sagging. Wait until the first coat is fully dry before laying down a second coat to increase resilience and colour uniformity. Use Tamiya bottle paints to refine small features after the spray is cured.

Protection Against Fuels and Oils

The PS-23 formula holds up well against oils and standard RC fuels, helping maintain the finish on nitro and gas powered vehicles. Proper drying and handling are key to long term performance.

Will this paint chip under heavy use?

If applied correctly in thin coats and allowed to cure, it resists chipping well, though rough impacts can still damage any painted shell.

Are primers needed before spraying?

No primer is necessary for polycarbonate; prepare the surface with a light scuff if needed and always spray from the inside as recommended.

How do I get the best metallic look?

Use multiple thin coats and consider a final clear trim using compatible products for added gloss and protection around edges.
