Tamiya XF54 Dark Sea Grey (81754) Acrylic paint 10ml

Tamiya XF54 Dark Sea Grey (81754) is a high-quality acrylic model paint, designed for precise painting of plastic models and other modeling materials. This product belongs to the "acrylic model paints" category, and each bottle contains 10 ml, making it ideal for painting both large surfaces and small details.

Tamiya XF54 Dark Sea Grey paint has been developed to reproduce the authentic "dark sea grey" color used by military aviation, especially the air forces of Great Britain and Commonwealth countries during World War II, as well as the post-war and Cold War eras. Dark Sea Grey was mainly used for camouflaging fighter and bomber aircraft such as the Supermarine Spitfire, Avro Lancaster, Hawker Hunter, and BAC Lightning. It was used on the European front from 1941-1945, as well as in later decades up to the 1980s, especially in the RAF.

Tamiya's acrylic formula guarantees excellent coverage, fast drying, and easy application both with a brush and an airbrush. The paint has a semi-gloss finish, making it ideal for replicating the natural look of most vehicles, aircraft, and dioramas. It is recommended to use the dedicated Tamiya X-20A thinner, which ensures optimal consistency and smoothness of the paint layer. Adding a few drops of Tamiya Retarder (87114) minimizes the risk of brush marks and extends drying time, allowing for precise work even on difficult details.
