Tamiya XF86 Flat Clear is a versatile, transparent matte varnish that does not yellow or change color shades after drying. Its hardening properties and abrasion resistance protect the model from mechanical damage and dust. Thanks to carefully selected pigments, the varnish is fully transparent and does not leave a visible coating on model details. This makes it an excellent choice for historical military models (WWII, Cold War era), aircraft models, tanks, figures, and for civil modeling, such as 1/24 scale cars.

The best results are achieved using the dedicated Tamiya X-20A thinner and a few drops of Tamiya Retarder (87114), which minimizes the risk of streaks or blooming on the surface. The paint is suitable for both brush and airbrush application – it ensures easy application and even coverage. This recommended product is a must-have for every modeler, both beginners and advanced.

Application difficulty rating: 1/5.
We recommend this product to all modelers who want a professional, durable, and non-reflective finish. Tamiya XF86 Flat Clear works perfectly for both historical dioramas and modern projects, adding realism to your models and protecting them for years.
