dc10oiller Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Good Day all. I've been lurking on this forum for a while and it's been great. I'm somewhat new to cars so I've been learning lots. However lurking only goes so far and now I need some specific help. A group of us (there's 9) are all building Revell's '57 Chevy Black Widdow/150 Sedan. It looks like we're all doing different finishes but we all need paint. I've found a colour chart on-line (http://www.classicdr...selections.html), now we just need the paints. Is there a reference chart for either buying or mixing these colours using model paints, both enamel and acrylic. Thanks. Massimo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTEMIS1759 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 I'll tell you your best bet would be to go to a local Automotive paint supplier and ask them what color mix they use and then replicate it. Onyx Black is a standard non-metallic non pearl Black and the White is Arctic White which is a very bright pure white, no metallic or pearl. The colors look the same with different names because the manufacturers have to use flashy names to sell the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
