Mike Chernecki Posted May 24, 2017 Posted May 24, 2017 (edited) Does anyone know the correct color to use on the gold wheels available on the Lamborghini Countach? I have several gold and brass colors, but nothing is close. Edited May 24, 2017 by Mike Chernecki
landman Posted May 24, 2017 Posted May 24, 2017 You don't want anything metallic, by that I mean with flakes. Perhaps Alclad gold with dullcote or some sort of acrylic gold leaf.
Mike Chernecki Posted May 24, 2017 Author Posted May 24, 2017 Thanks for the suggestion. I will check these out.
935k3 Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) Tamiya rattle can gold could work I second that. Tamiya TS-21 Gold. The sheen is good as is, no clear over needed. It will look a little better if you decant and airbrush it. The gold wheels below were airbrushed TS-21 Edited May 25, 2017 by 935k3
peteski Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 That is an unusual (satin metallic) color. I wonder if adding bit of silver paint to the brass/gold paint would give the right look? That is if you airbrushing them of course. Do a spoon test before painting the wheels.
