## Description

Tamiya Acrylic/Poly Thinner X20A 46Ml, TAM81030

Review: Airbrushing acrylics? When in doubt, thin it out - with X-20A - I normally have a lot of trouble getting a smooth white acrylic coat from my airbrush, even with dedicated airbrush paints or inks. This solved the problem. I used it with liquitex white ink, I've read it works well with Tamiya XF-2 and I'm sure it would work well with D&R white ink also. I anticipate much nicer zenithal highlights and OSL effects going forward!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: if acrylics are water based, what is "thinner other than fancy H2O?**
A: Your mistake is thinking that all acrylics are water based.  Tamiya acrylics are very much solvent based and can not be thinned properly with water.

**Q: Can this thin enamel paint ?**
A: No, strictly for Tamiya acrylics.

**Q: Why does the description state: "do not use to thin acrylic paints"? it literally says "acrylic paint thinner" on the bottle.**
A: It does not show that on the bottle. Someone wrote that and Amazon approved it. They don't know.
It is for thinning their acrylic paint.

**Q: Can it thin acrylic paints of other acrylic paint manufacturers besides Tamiya Color?**
A: Yes it can, and some modelers do so. I usually find using the manufactures thinner works best though.  I find that Tamiya thinner works best with Tamiya paints.
