## Overview

Tamiya 85049 Spray Lacquer TS-49 Bright Red is a 100ml aerosol synthetic lacquer designed for plastic models, delivering a glossy, fast-curing finish. It covers multiple 1/24 scale car bodies per can and is fully compatible with acrylic and enamel paints for detailed layering. Ideal for professionals and hobbyists seeking vibrant, durable color with quick turnaround.

## Description

These cans of spray paint are extremely useful for painting large surfaces. The paint is a synthetic lacquer that cures in a short period of time. Each contains 100ml of paint, which is enough to fully cover 2 or 3, 1/24 scale sized car bodies. Tamiya spray paints are not affected by acrylic or enamel paints. Therefore, following an overall base coat, details can be added or picked out using enamel and/or acrylic paints. By combining the use of these three types of paints, the finishing of plastic models becomes simpler and more effective.

Review: They claim Tamiya is only suitable for plastic models - I think not - Try a low-profile bumper part on an automobile getting a ton of grit striking it. Nice, strong, resilient red paint that lasts....

A: Yes

A: All paints that are NOT identified as FLAT are gloss. TS-49 is gloss.

**Q: Want to paint a plastic quad frame but the frame flexes. Will this paint chip off when the frame is flexed?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Paint For Plastic Model Kits.
*by R***R on February 19, 2025*

Tamiya spray paint is my favorite for painting model kits. Sprays smoothly and with good coverage. Drys so much faster than other brands. One tip is to warm the can in warm, not hot water before use. Color range is pretty good with lots of choices.Tamiyas spray primer is good to use before you use your desired final coatings.
