Tamiya 82142 LP-42 Mica Red 10ml – high-quality model lacquer

Tamiya 82142 LP-42 Mica Red 10ml is a professional lacquer-based modeling paint dedicated to both hobbyists and advanced modelers seeking top quality. The product comes from the renowned Japanese manufacturer Tamiya, recognized for years as a global leader in the modeling industry.

The color Mica Red (a special shade of red with a pearlescent effect) reproduces an attractive, metallic hue often seen on modern cars in high-gloss versions. The paint is perfect for painting plastic car model bodies in scales 1/24 or 1/20, as well as aviation and naval details on models from the 20th and 21st centuries. Especially recommended for customizing modern sports car models, racing vehicles, and contemporary dioramas.

• Capacity: 10 ml
• Base: synthetic lacquer
• Color: LP-42 Mica Red (metallic red with pearlescent sheen)
• Use: airbrush painting (recommended by the manufacturer)
• Packing: glass jar ensuring long-lasting freshness

The paint is characterized by exceptional ease of application, high adhesion, and fast drying. When properly applied, it creates a durable, smooth, and even coating with a very striking appearance. Thanks to its formula, the paint spreads excellently on plastic, resin, and metal surfaces. With proper preparation and the use of LP thinner, it can also be used with a brush, though the manufacturer primarily recommends airbrush for best results.

Tamiya 82142 LP-42 Mica Red 10ml is the ideal paint for car, aircraft, and diorama modelers, as well as anyone seeking a deep, pearly red effect on their models. We recommend this product to both beginner and advanced modeling enthusiasts. The degree of difficulty when working with this paint is rated at level 2/5 – suitable for amateurs and professionals alike. For the best effect, we recommend using both a primer and clear lacquer.

By choosing lacquer models from Tamiya's LP series, you invest in professionalism, durability, and color saturation that the most demanding modelers expect!
