Essential for Gundam detailing

This black wash is perfect for bringing out the panel lines on my RG and MG kits. The flow is excellent and it dries quickly without leaving too much residue.

Standard for weathering

A staple in my workshop. I use this not just for panel lines but also for subtle shading around vents and mechanical details. Highly recommended.

Best in class

I have tried other brands, but Tamiya's consistency is unmatched. The capillary action pulls the pigment right into the grooves effortlessly.

Tricky for beginners

It took me a few tries to get the hang of it. I accidentally smeared some on the flat surface, but luckily it cleaned off with enamel thinner. Practice makes perfect.

Great product but needs gloss coat first

Works wonderfully if you apply a gloss topcoat beforehand. Without it, the wash can stain matte surfaces. Just follow the instructions and you will get great results.

Good value for money

The bottle lasts a long time since you only need a tiny amount per kit. The black shade is deep and realistic for military and sci-fi models alike.

5 FAQ

Q: Does this come with a brush?

A: Yes, the bottle includes a fine built-in brush specifically designed for applying the wash directly into panel lines.

Q: How long does it take to dry?

A: Typically, it dries to the touch within 15-30 minutes depending on humidity and thickness of application, but waiting an hour before wiping excess is safer.

Q: Can I use this on matte finished models directly?

A: It is highly recommended to apply a gloss clear coat before using this product to prevent staining the matte finish. You can matte coat it again after the wash is dry.

Q: What thinner should I use for cleanup?

A: You should use Tamiya Enamel Thinner (X-20) or any standard enamel thinner for cleaning up excess wash or mistakes.

Q: Is this safe for polycarbonate parts?

A: No, this is an enamel-based product and should not be used on polycarbonate parts as it may cause cracking. It is designed for ABS and PS plastic parts.
