Model Forum / General / Models / February 2008painting tip for auto modelers
if you're trying to duplicate 1955 Ford Neptune Green, sensun blue shampoo looks about right. (guess where I was when I figure this out) needed small touchup to existing paint job, mixed some up with Future. so far, it looks OK. on 2/7/2008 12:55 PM z said the following: > if you're trying to duplicate 1955 Ford Neptune Green, sensun blue > shampoo looks about right.

Dandruff shampoo, moisturizing dandruff shampoo, or medicated > shampoo? yeah, that's the one. whatever variety. looks like I should have put more "pigment" in with the future, but it's better than it was. i realized every product in the bathroom is some shade of aqua/ turquoise. the selsun "blue", the body wash, the shaving gel, the toothpaste, even the bar of Lava soap. though i wouldn't paint with it. I see I was wrong, Neptune Blue was listed as a Ford color for 1955, but this here says it's Thunderbird Blue. It's the same color, anyway. http://www.roxboroughinfo.com/thunderbirdaugust.htm A walmart's clearance special on a prepainted revell metal kit. came complete with a tube of glue, though the plastic parts were pretty much snap. Don't get the Selsun Blue with conditioner. It's the colour of Pepto Bismol. Bill Banaszak, MFE Sr. I did come up with a tip for those of us who have purchased one of R-M's die-cast kits. I have the "Vanishing Point" Challenger and as it is a unibody design the engine bay should be the same colour as the body of the car. The body is not white, it is an ivory. I found I had a can of Krylon Gloss Ivory and happily, it matched almost perfectly. The project is moving along slowly but it is moving!
