69A-CAR Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Well basically, where can I get some?? There are not any dealers around, does anyone have a link to a website I could buy a can from?? Many thanks
scale trucker Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 do you need the blue or the greenish blue ???
disabled modeler Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 I got some greenish/blue from a auto parts store made for the real engines...looks nice!
69A-CAR Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 I need the later blue color, not the alpine green. I have a can of that here. Thanks
scale trucker Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 the last one i did i used testors flat egg shell blue for interios and looked spot on..
Jim B Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Tamiya Medium Blue XF-18 is a decent match, too.
Semi Trailer Mechanic Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) Look in your yellow pages for a local Detroit Diesel Distributor,Warrently,and Repair shop. Go to the parts department buy ya a can (if ya absolutly have to have the exact color). I did that several years ago. Here in Columbus,Ohio I know several mechanics that work at W.W. Williams Detroit Diesel/Carrier Refridgeration. After BS's with them in the parts dept one of my buds just grabbed a half used can off his tool box and gave it to me. LOL The paint is called Series 60 Blue. Edited October 13, 2011 by Semi Trailer Mechanic
skulls Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 Sheeesh, I wish you lived a little closer, I use to work at a freightliner dealership and I have like 4 cans of the blue just sitting here collecting dust! I hav alot of the differant colors as well CAT yellow, Cummins signature red, cummins black (which is a very odd greyish black) and a few others.
