Tamiya XF-16 paint was developed to realistically reproduce the effect of matte aluminum on models in various scales (e.g. 1/35, 1/72, 1/24). The coating created after application is highly resistant to chipping and abrasion, which is especially important in further modeling processes such as washes, shading, or dry pigment application. Thanks to its versatile formula, XF-16 acrylic adheres very well to popular modeling surfaces and is excellent for further finishing, such as with varnish or weathering techniques.

Advantages of using Tamiya XF-16 Flat Aluminum:

• Very good adhesion and fast drying time
• No strong odors – safe to use in enclosed spaces
• Excellent coverage with just one or two coats
• Easy to mix with other Tamiya acrylic colors

This product is perfect for both beginner modelers and advanced plastic scale model enthusiasts. Suggested skill level: 1/5 (easy to apply). Intended for use in all modeling categories: plastic models, dioramas, interior elements, and details.
