Dear friends: Tamiya X1 paint marker on lexan?

Post by deangaffney »

Dear folk of the forum,
Would you be so good as to give your opinions on this question?
Could I use a Tamiya X1 paint marker to touch up a lexan body?
Just tiny areas really but don't want to melt the shell. I need a black touch-up options, don't want to spend another £5 + £6 shipping on a whole can of PS-5. Seems like brushable Tamiya black for polycarbonate is a thing of the past.

Many thanks in advance.

I guess You can do it that way - and then back it with a piece of black scotch super 88 or 33
