It contains a built-in drying retarder that slows paint drying during airbrushing, allowing the paint to level more smoothly for a superior finish. This helps minimise dry spray, improves gloss finishes and reduces blushing caused by humidity. It is ideal for both thinning lacquer paints and cleaning compatible airbrushes and painting equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Tamiya lacquer thinner with built-in retarder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecially formulated for Tamiya Color Lacquer Paints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlows drying for smoother, higher-quality finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReduces dry spray during airbrushing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps minimise blushing in humid conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves paint flow and self-levelling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for thinning lacquer paints and cleaning equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge 250ml bottle for regular hobby use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Tamiya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: 87194-000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarcode: 4950344071821\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Lacquer Paint Thinner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormula: Retarder Type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume: 250ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible Paints: Tamiya Color Lacquer Paints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Airbrush Mixing Ratio: 1–2 parts thinner to 1 part paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplications: Paint thinning and equipment cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIncludes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 × Tamiya Lacquer Thinner (Retarder Type) 250ml Bottle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the difference between Retarder Type and standard Lacquer Thinner?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Retarder Type contains a drying retarder that slows paint drying, allowing the paint to level more smoothly for improved gloss finishes and reducing dry spray during airbrushing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich paints is it designed for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is specifically formulated for use with Tamiya Color Lacquer Paints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat mixing ratio should I use for airbrushing?\u003c\/strong\u003e Tamiya recommends mixing between 1 and 2 parts thinner to 1 part paint, depending on the paint colour, desired finish and spraying conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it help reduce blushing?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
