    STP pink for Lotus 56 model

    I want to build an old MPC 1:25 Lotus 56 IndyCar model. I cannot find a suitable fluorescent pink aerosol spray. Tamiya do the right colour but that is for r/c polycarbonate shells and I am concerned that it would not work on a plasticity, even if applied over a Tamiya primer
    Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Try zero paints, I hear they are great for car paint for model cars.

      Robert,
      try here : https://www.hiroboy.com/search?q=stp+pink - loads of pink paint - the only spray being Tamiya, sadly - you may be able to use this over a good primer coat?

        Now I have been Googling after the car in question and I found lots of red ones, both bright and some faded. Are you sure its pink?!
        A google for fluorescent pink aerosol spray turns up about 6million results though so depending where you are in the world, you should find something...
