Sir Desmond Glazebrook Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 AS-12 bare metal silver. TS-83 metalic silver. They are really good! Are these new, or am I slow? (Don't answer that!) 4
HubertB Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 In spite of your injunction, yes, you're slow ! AS-12 is also very good for "Speed Silver" IMHO. Hubert PS: and, as usual with Tamiya rattle cans, I prefer to use them through the AB, after decanting. You get a better control of the flow than straight out of the rattle can. 4
Wumm Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 The TS-83 is not that old, released maybe 3 or 4 years ago with a gold, and then a little later on also some titanium versions of same. The AS-12 is perhaps 2 decades old now, is part of their Aircraft specific range, and goes down much smoother than their silver leaf spray can; which is a better choice if you're attempting to impart weathering or a wash into the surface colour.

GusMac Posted February 26, 2020 Posted February 26, 2020 Like Hubert I always decant the AS-12 as you've a lot more control through the AB. It's a great base coat for chipping as it sets like a rock and looks like a slightly faded bare metal. 2
