PS-53 Lame Flake is part of Tamiya's PS range of polycarbonate body sprays, providing a coarse metallic flake finish that creates a highly sparkling, glittery appearance — the 'lame' effect (from the French fabric with metallic thread) that produces a dramatically different visual from fine metallic paints. Applied from the inside of clear Lexan shells, the large metallic flake catches light intensely for maximum sparkle.
