Help on painting Jets
Hi,
If you dont have spray equipment then there is a way
around this, open Yellow Pages and find your local automotive
paint/equipment supplier and go and have a chat, they are
usually interested as its not run of the mill.
Take colour samples (for example Humbrol tinlets of the
colours you want), they can supply spraycans of paint
mixed to these, ask for extra propellant as other wise you end
up with some wasted paint. I use normal cellulose as apart
from a P3 mask you dont need special safety equipment.
When ready to spray stand the cans in warm/hot water
this raises the pressure and thins the paint slightly giving
a better spray.
When done, add weathering, panel lines and markings
then fuel proof to get an even finish.
This does work, I did a JMP Phantom this way before
I finally bought a gun/compressor.
