i have no complaints on the tamiya ps paints, they are great, they have a good selection of colors, and if the body is prepped well, it will last a long time.

| Recently, that's really all I've been using(Tamiya paints). They seem to hold up pretty well. |

Tamiya Paint is pretty nice, and as mentioned already, they have a good sized selection.

Ive had experience with both, Tamiya has the best colour range true, but pactra cans seem to have a better spray coverage which ive found to make the cans last a little longer.

I am now using the tamiya Primer. It seemed to coat nice and dry quick enough that I could do a thin second coat right after the first. I am going to use Pactra candy blue next #rc272. the Pactra was a little more for less but the lhs owner reccomended it. they had a better color selection as well than tamiyia, in my shop anyway. but the tamiyas looked brighter and more colorful.
