hartleymartin Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Hi Everyone! I just discovered the range of Acrylic sprays that Humbrol has. In Australia, all spray-paint is stored in a locked cabinet to stop kids from stealing the stuff for graffiti/vandalism. I was just wondering if anyone knows about the compatibility between the Tamiya and Humbrol Acrylic sprays. I have used a lot of Tamiya over the years, though I am aware that most of the colours are more for military modelling and cars rather than railways. I'm just asking because I've used Tamiya grey primer on a project and I really would like to use Humbrol Brunswick Green, but I'm worried that it may turn my model into a pile of plastic-goo if there is a bad reaction.

RMweb Gold Mick Bonwick Posted July 26, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 26, 2019 If the Tamiya primer is fully hardened (dry for more than 48 hours) you can spray or paint other paints on it without any problems. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I was worried I might turn some of my models into blobs. I've seen bad paint reactions on brass models, but you can just dunk those in a bath of thinners and start again. Not so with plastic models. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
