Michal Sindera has sent us exciting news of a new range of Tamiya paints due for release next month.

Tamiya Inc. has introduced a new line of paint simply called; Tamiya Lacquer Paint.

Product Information: This is a brand-new range of paints in the Tamiya Color series. Lacquer-based paints were only previously available as Spray Colors, but now this range will be released in an initial release of 14 colors (1 new) and a thinner as bottled lacquer-based colors. Lacquer paints have the advantage of drying in a short span of time and giving a resistant membrane. Each of these products comes in a handy 10ml bottle in the same size and dimensions as Tamiya Acrylic Mini bottled paints. A second wave of 15 colors will be released shortly after the first 14 and a third wave is being planned…

Availability: The first 14 colors and thinner will go on sale in Japan beginning in November. The second wave will go on sale in early 2018 and the third planned wave is to be determined.

Availability in the USA: All Tamiya paints and chemical products go through stringent testing for compliance that are imported and sold by Tamiya America, Inc. into the US market. The paints imported by Tamiya America have clear labeling and warnings specific to U.S. government agency regulations. Tamiya’s ALL-NEW Lacquer Paint bottles will go through the same testing, approval, and labeling process as all other chemical products imported by Tamiya America, Inc. Once this process is complete, Tamiya America will introduce the ENTIRE LINE of these lacquer bottled paints all at once into the U.S. market in the future.
