The technology used to manufacture these cotton applicators significantly differs from drugstore products. Tamiya has ensured that the swab tips feature an unusual triangular shape, enabling precise access to even the smallest crevices and angles, often invisible to the naked eye but crucial when painting details or creating weathering effects.

Tamiya 87106 modeling cotton swabs are perfect for applying water decals, soaking up excess solvent, precise drybrushing, cleaning areas after masking, and making minor paint touch-ups on models. They are indispensable for washes and weathering effects—allowing for natural color transitions and shading without the risk of smudging or damaging model details.

Thanks to the resistance of the material to moisture and solvents, Tamiya 87106 swabs fray and split much less than their drugstore counterparts. This is especially important when working with delicate decals or solvent-based lacquers, where even the smallest fibers can ruin the final result.

The product is recommended for both beginners and advanced modelers, valued for its durability and versatility. We strongly recommend it to anyone building models in any scale: from 1/144, through 1/72 and 1/35, to more demanding sizes like 1/24 or 1/12. Difficulty level of use: 1/5 – easy to use but essential for achieving professional results.

The Tamiya 87106 Craft Cotton Swab - Triangular/Small 50pcs set is a practical tool that should be found in every modeler's workshop who cares about detail and the highest level of finish in their work.
