Are you certain about that, or just speculating based on internet buzz? There seems to be conflicting information on that topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miatatom Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) Vintagerpm is correct. No more Testors paint. 😪 Edited February 23, 2021 by Miatatom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to get the right answer to this. Unsubstantiated and unverified one-line statements all over the internet say"Testors is gone", but I can't find an official statement saying so. The-sky-is-falling types all over internet forums and facebook are saying so, but I can't find an informed and trustworthy source making this claim. Testors own website is useless, still promoting Model Master products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vintagerpm Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Ok, just did some checking. It appears that Testor's 1/4 oz square bottles and 3 oz spray cans (both enamels) will remain. All others gone (that means no ModelMaster). Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Testors recently added a craft enamel spray line, apparently to compete against Short Cuts and other craft sprays. That line has some flat and some gloss colors, the gloss colors include a coral and (IIRC) a turquoise that would be suitable for some Fifties cars. I think there are some bottled paints too, but those could be acrylic. Their other recent experiments like the CreateFX craft paints apparently didn't go over too well...Michael's had them for only a short time, the stores here were blowing them out pretty soon after they started carrying them.
