What Paint Do I Need To Paint A Tamiya Cockpit?

Recommended Posts

Hello there Tamiya members,

At long last I have managed to buy a brand new Tamiya rally cockpit for only 5.00 ! ! !

Does any one know what paint and primer I need to paint it with? :blink:

Thankyou for your time and advice,

Rally Man. ;)

p.s I said only Professional help because I don't want to melt my cockpit with the wrong paint, I don't mean to offend anyone.

I've only ever used Tamiya Acrylics but any TS spray will be fine, they are all plastic compatible.

Thanks WillyChang,

Does anybody know if the plastic paint used to paint games workshop miniture figures would be o.k.?

(I have loads of the stuff!) :)

Hi,

I've painted a few Group C cockpits and noticed its definately wroth spraying with the Primer first as (1) helps the paint stick better (2) gives a more even paint look as the light doesnt come through the thin plastic and give an uneven paint look ;) Once you've dont that its just like painting any plastic model kit and I also use the Tamiya paints.
