Painting Diecast Metal

Oct 24, 2009 3 Replies

For reasons best known to myself I need to paint an old Triang Spot-on diecast model car.



It would have been separated into its component parts then stripped with Nitromors and so back to clean metal (I hope).



Anyway, given it's metal and it's been a long time since I had Spitfires and Heinkels hanging from the ceiling so what paint to use and how to do it? Looking for dark blue.



Incidentally, where to get the rivets to put it all back together. I can get the replacement plastic parts I need easily enough.

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at yahoo.com. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
