    Ha, ye, I just need a can of it so I can get it matched properly, it will be properly done by a paintshop.

    It depends, when you mean shipped is it litterly ship like in a container on a fairy, if there shipping motheds by air, no they wont as its a compressed can and can explode;)

    i need fresh paint. i used to get the spax paint for the airbrush flip paint from a crowd in the states but they will not ship to me anymore because of some change in what postal service will send . I'll make do with pactra spray cans , like there range

    I can confirm that Modelsport will indeed send Aerosols etc. to us over here.;)

    You can also get in from the model shop in Waterford.:cool:

    I got paint from them in the past too...no problems with aerosol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    I,m sure anyone who does tamaiya will do the spray:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 312 ✭✭mugenextreme


    Heres 2 pics showing my last paint job, camera doesnt do it any justice ,
    you get the idea of the flip paint , look great when it hits the sun.

    Tamiya were the only ones with a close enough match, so i need the can so the paintshop can match it up...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,149 ✭✭✭BFassassin


    you should get it early next week i reckon.
    if you ask me its an odd colour but thats just me:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug
