21 century fabric paint
I have a GP PT 19 giant scale. There are some scuff marks and such on the wing. I bought some GP lustercote cub yellow paint, taped everything up and sprayed the wing. two coats and still the marks are visible. Should I have reprimed the entire wing before repainting? I wasn't aware that the Cub yellow was considered a "candy" type color paint and yes I shook the paint can aggressively for at least two minutes.

Or you can use Krylon #1315 white primer.

Used the Krylon white primer and krylon yellow on the wing last night. Looks great!!!! I used to do body work on cars and have custom painted a few harley's, I should've known better than to try and cover without primer. Anyway, thanks. Plan is going to look great!

I'm darn sure thinking about Arizona. Out of the hurrincane belt, but not sure I like the color brown so much. All I have left to do on the plane is touch up the Horizontal stab and it will be decal ready. Need to take the cowl off and do a good engine inspection. iginition battery is in the cowl as well. I haven't had time to look and figure out where and how the guy has the kill switch setup. Been working long days and 6 days a week.

Actually, black primer/undercoat works surprisingly well with yellow paint! Spray your yellow over both white and black primer on some scrap cardboard and look at the results. It takes less yellow to cover, by the way.
