  1. I've have a good friend of mine that's heading to Vancouver this morning. He's going to see if he can find me either the Model Master Daytona Yellow lacquer spray or the Chrome Yellow enamel bottle. If that fails, I'm going to place an order with Elm City Hobbies this week for the Daytona lacquer spray. I think that may be the best way to go color wise.
  2. Automotive lacquers would be the way to go. At least they are the correct colors. I've already have Tamiya white primer for the body, so would that be a good enough or the Dupli-Color lacquer?
  3. Yes, I did see that Dupli-Color yellow and it is a very close match to the original GM color and it's readily available here. No waiting on shipping I would decant it first and be applying it with an airbrush, so it may be fine in light coats. The only thing that concerns me is that automotive lacquers are a little hotter then regular model lacquers on plastic.
  4. Thanks so much guys for the information. I'm checking into your suggestions and will keep you posted.
  5. Hello everyone! I'm new to MCM, but not new to modeling hobby. Just a little rusty since I've gotten back into building after 17 years. But I'm definitely enjoying it again :). I have the 1/25 scale Revell '69 Camaro on the bench right now and I would like to do the body color in Daytona Yellow. But I'm having an issue with finding the correct yellow or something as close as possible to Daytona Yellow. Now I have found the Testors Daytona Yellow on several web sites, but I'm not into spending 30 to 40$ Canadian shipped for 3oz of paint! Is there any other alternative paint that I can use such as PlastiKote, Rust-Oleum, Dupli-Color, Krylon, etc? Also my local hobby shop here does carry Testors, Humbrol, Vallejo and Tamiya colors if this helps any. I would really appreciate if someone could please help me. Thanks in advance gentlemen...
