Certain colors I'm guessing I can probably really only find in the model spray paint, but for basic black, white, red, blue, green, would just Krylon or Rust-o-leum do fine?

Thanks again!


As you say, Testors in those little (3 oz. ?) hobby shop cans is the expensive way to go. I only go there if I need a particular color that I can't get in the bigger and more economically priced cans.

FWIW I've been using Rusto Painters Touch 2x from the Depot and Wally World. I've been seeing alot of the Krylon ColorMaster line at the Walmarts around me as well so I intend to try that sometime soon.

Hope this helps.
