Fuelproof paint
I need to paint my 1/12 scale warbird a dark green but can't find this color in fuelproof paints. Would automotive paint be fuelproof. I don't want a glossy finish; I need semi gloss. What about latex paint?

Fuelproof paint
I have glow fueled engines and have been using
latex and getting good results.
Use "exterior" trim paint and allow to completely dry,(72hrs)
before subjecting to fuel. I clear coat with a gloss latex poly
only to make it shine a little better. You may want to use a
satin instead.
The key with latex is to let it completely dry
