Tamiya spray paint match for Kenny Bernstein's cars?


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure of a Tamiya color, but you can test their red colors over different colored bases on some plastic spoons to see if you can get close.  If you can use an airbrush, Scalefinishes has Budweiser red listed under their racing colors section.

TS 49 and TS 8 look to be close contenders to start with.. One perhaps slightly darker, the other maybe a bit lighter. But not by a lot. I haven't tried Budweiser red though. It seems to be named in three classifications but I suspect it's all the same red in the end.

I did something similar with Coca Cola red, starting with Createx primary red. Just with an airbrush I was free to mix in some 4030, which is clear and allowed more shading from the base color below because of reduced opacity of the red..
