Using Diorama Texture Paint with Other Tamiya Paints

Note
・Make sure the previous coat of paint has completely dried before applying another coat over it.
・To ensure the correct effect, test paints on scrap material etc. before applying them to your model.

Tamiya Spray Paints △ Applying thin layers of top coat is possible. Do not apply thickly and paint a thin layer 2-3 times.


Applying a base coat of other type of paints before applying Diorama Texture Paints
