Tamiya Acrylic Mini Paints XF-52 Flat Earth (HC-81752) is a versatile, water‑soluble acrylic ideal for scale modelling. Suitable for brush work and airbrushing, it adheres to styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood and common model plastics. It offers reliable coverage, smooth flow and easy blending, and can be cleaned away with plain water before curing.
As an XF colour, it dries to a flat finish. For airbrushing, suggested compatibility includes Tamiya thinners 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520 and 87077. The paint can be thinned with Tamiya X‑20A Acrylic Thinner or with Tamiya Lacquer Thinner; using lacquer thinner promotes faster drying and a harder finish. For improved brushing results, Tamiya Paint Retarder (87114) helps achieve a smoother, brushstroke‑free surface.
