Hi Everybody
Just a question about Tamiya paints. Does anyone know the reason why they are given either a x or xf code. What is the diffence between the paint of the two codes if any?

X = gloss
XF = flat

Something I am reading in an article. I haven't checked this to be true, but perhaps it is.

That's correct. Also note that Tamiya gloss paints can be made flat by mixing them with Flat Base (X-21).

...and the special character problem strikes again! Yes, what was said above.

Cheers!
