Tamiya Acrylic Paint Mini XF-9 Hull Red

Tamiya XF-9 Hull Red is the deep, brick-red oxide used on ship hulls below the waterline — and a superb base for rust and primer effects across all kinds of models. A genuinely useful, characterful red-brown.

Best for

• Ship hulls below the waterline
• Rust and red-oxide primer effects
• Brushing or airbrushing once thinned

A characterful hull red-oxide. Sprays smoothest thinned with Tamiya X-20A — worth keeping alongside.
