If you are going to bring paint you should do Automotive 4oz bottles. I only use House of Kolor and Dupont and PPG paints and Clears. For awhile I was buying my paint from Coast Airbrush, they are about the best place to pick up anything from Auto Air to House of Kolor for half way decent price. |

X3 on Pactra, plus I've been playing around with Model Master Spray Lacquers too with good luck.

I used some Krylon Fusion for my RC10. It flaked off pretty fast. My RC10 has taken a pretty good beating at high speed, jumps, rolls etc. And yes I did wash the body with hot soapy water prior to painting, and it still flaked off pretty fast. Might hold up better on a crawler? never tryed it after that. Just my experience with it.

I still buy HOK by thw quarts. I have hundreds of 4 oz bottles from when I was selling 4oz bottles. It just did not move very well. I used the quarts faster than I sold the 4 oz bottles...:-P How many of you all are using airbrushes instead of rattle cans? I sell Faskolor 4oz just dont have it on the site. If there is a call for it Ill put it up. | |

Honestly, I would never buy Pactra online. The combustible, flammable shipping cost would out weigh the price I could get it at the local hobby shop.
