After a Certain paint code for rc shell. Where to try?

[burton_ii]

I am currently under taking making a 1/10th scale of my car and I require the correct paint code.

It is honda championship white I am after and would really appreciate a point in the right direction on where to get such a paint.

Wow, that's a tricky one

That's brilliant.

Thank you very much your help.

Is it a lexan shell? Comes clear, paint it on the inside? If so, that paint probably won't work

[burton_ii]

The shell is made from PC material. And like you mentioned I was intending on painting the inside.

The paint will likely flake off over time, even if the shell is used only for display purposes.

Championship White will be difficult to replicate on a bodyshell. Various flat whites and pearls are available, perhaps one of those would be closer?

That's what I was worried about the fact it might become flakey over time. It won't be sat on the shelf but at the same time would like it to stay as nice as possible.

I may have to use an off white potentially then, one of Tamiyas own?

Just make sure it's paint for lexan/polycarbonate

Is it Pactra who do the stuff to spray from an airbrush? In which case you could have a mix?

[C.A.R.]

Pactra paints can be bought in liquid form for airbrushing.

Tamiya does their own "PS" (for Poly Spray) paint range but it isn't the best value for money - although they are easy to come by.

Light, even coats are the key to getting it right. Don't worry too much about the transparency at first, which can often be misleading. If
