Chipping Liquid
Item No: 87225

★Chipping is an excellent way of adding realism to your static models, simulating wear by allowing a base color to peep through the top coat. ★This handy product is applied onto the base coat, with an acrylic top coat applied there after. ★Apply water to the top coat and it comes away to reveal the base color underneath.

About the Product
★Comes in a 40ml bottle. ★Water-based ★The image at right shows an example of use.
*Use Tamiya Color lacquer-based paints (LP, TS, AS series) as the basecoat. Please note that gloss and metallic colors cannot be used. Matte metallic colors are OK.
*Use Tamiya Color acrylic paints for the top coat.

How to use the Chipping Liquid

★First, apply a basecoat using lacquer-based Tamiya Colors (LP, TS, AS series). Gloss and metallic paints repel the liquid and cannot be used.

★Apply a layer of Chipping Liquid with a brush or airbrush. It can be diluted with water if required.

★Apply a top coat of Tamiya Color Acrylic Paint.

★Left: Brush water onto areas where you want to chip away the topcoat, then wait a few minutes.

★Right: Use a toothpick or similar implement to chip the part, then let it dry.
Chipping Liquid drops in effectiveness the longer a part is left after its top coat. Tamiya recommends shipping within a week of applying the topcoat.
