Tamiya PS-51 Purple Anodised Aluminium (HC-86051) is a polycarbonate spray paint formulated for transparent Lexan RC car bodies. It reproduces the shiny metallic look of anodised aluminium in a rich purple tone, with highly adhesive, shock-resistant properties that help prevent peeling or flaking.

Key Features

  • Realistic purple anodised aluminium metallic finish
  • Developed for transparent polycarbonate (Lexan) RC bodies
  • Highly adhesive and shock-resistant to help prevent peeling
  • Impervious to oil and fuels for nitro/gas applications
  • 100ml (approx. 3oz) can – suitable amount for finishing a model

Application Tips

  • Paint the body from the inside for a deep, glossy effect
  • Spray from about 30cm and allow to cure before applying additional coats
  • Optional: Back with Tamiya PS-5 Black after drying for a sharper finish (not required)
  • Brush-paint small details beforehand using Tamiya bottle paints for polycarbonate

Note: These PS paints are for polycarbonate (Lexan) only and should not be used on plastic model kits.

This is a 3oz can of purple anodized aluminum polycarbonate spray paint from Tamiya. The purple color realistically reproduces the shiny metallic look of Anodized Aluminum parts. This highly adhesive, shock-resistant paint wont peel or flake off.

NOTE: After paint dries, it may be covered with a coat of PS-5 Black for even sharper finish. (But this is not necessary, and the paint will be sufficiently shiny even without black undercoat).

These spray paints were developed especially for decorating transparent polycarbonate (Lexan) bodies used in R/C car modeling. Each can contains 100ml of paint, which is the appropriate amount for finishing a model. Small detail work should be brush painted beforehand using Tamiya bottle paints for polycarbonate. Paint the body from the inside, keeping the can about 30cm from the surface. After curing, apply another coat. These paints are impervious to oil and fuels, so they can be safely used on gas-powered R/C bodies. Never use these paints on plastic models.

Questions & Answers
Real questions from real customers. Why not ask your own?
Would this work for a custom limitless body? And would you recommend any other tools to do something as such for it is a stock body with the blue paint

Sure, it'll work on any polycarbonate body.

I'd back this with a silver for a good finish.
