Anyone ever use these paints?
I am searching for paint that is fuelproof that I can get in medium blue?
----->APPROX. THE COLOR OF THIS LINE I TYPED HERE<-----
I have searched all over for a medium blue paint that goes well with Coverite fabric. Coverite paints only come in 3 colors and primer, and one of those colors is NOT medium blue.
I have these choices I read on other threads, any opinions on them?
A good 100% fuelproof paint is Chevron Perfect Paint. You can order it through Sheldon's Hobbies. They advertise in the R/C magazines and also have a website.
If you like fast drying paint, try Plasticote Acrylic Laquer available in auto parts stores like Auto Zone. Be carefull make sure it says Acrylic Laquer, not just laquer or just acrylic! If it doesn't it is probably not fuel proof.
Rust-O-Leum paint is available at most any hardware store at very reasonable prices in both bulk and spray cans. The paint is fuel proof and makes an excellent finishing material.
The first two are from RCU threads, the last is from The Ol' Model Doctor

Tower has Midwest Aerogloss dope listed in what they call "Corsair Blue"... not sure if that color is close to what you want or not. Supposed to work very well with fabrics.

An excellent paint is Klasskote. A little pricey but great paint. You should use the primer also. Both require basic paint and catalyst and GOOD ventilation.

Can be blended (mixed) to match.
