discussion RLM 76...in a spray can?

[Guest]

Does anyone know if theres a RLM 76 equivalent, preferably in a spray can readily available?

I picked up a Revell FW190 A-8 and i've picked the easiest of the 2 paint schemes i can choose from, its basically RLM 76 allover lol

Allegedly an FW190 that was found by the allies and abandoned at Bad Aibling in May 1945. Yellow number 10 with the letters VS and BX

The instructions say to mix 50% light green matt, 30% white matt and 20% grey matt to get RLM 76, but, i dont really have anything to measure it out that precisely, and with it being an allover paint job, a spray can would give me a much nicer finish than brushing it.

So if anyone knows, please let me know

Thanks

well if you managed to get your spray gun to work you can use a syringe to messure it out and get the right colour, then add the thinners and spray it.

any joy with the spray gun yet?

Nope given up on that pretty much, it just wont stop leaking air and i dont want to buy more air to just waste it again. Would come in really handy right now though grrr

I'll definately get myself a better air brush sometime, ie one that actually works!

I never got the one i was talking about before

but...another one which is alot more suited has come up, so i've applied for that, plus its full time, so more money, so Im really hoping i get it.

I volunteer 2 days a week at the same place (community centre/church) working in the kitchen for the bistro and the job i've applied for now is catering assistant. I've basically been doing that for the past 6 months, so...we'll wait and see....fingers/toes/everything crossed lol

Have a look at the Tamiya spray range,excellent paint but a bit pricey,they have a soft sprayhead.
