BU_Terrier Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I'm looking for a source of RAF Squadron 3 green paint and rescue yellow paint. I know Xtracolor makes both of these paints; however, I'm in the USA and I cannot find a source of it. Hannants confirmed that they cannot ship to the USA anymore enamels. So now, I'm completely at a loss of what options I have. I try to always use Gunze Mr. Color. I'm not sure if there's a color for either of these. If so could someone share what the Mr. Color number is? If not Gunze Mr. Color, what other companies make these shades of paints? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bobski Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Xtracolour is the only company that makes it as far as I'm aware. You might have to mix them... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BU_Terrier Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Thanks. Would you happen to know any company that ships to the USA where I could get it? I'm doing the RAF Eurofighter 100 anniversary. If not, do you have some thoughts on what paints might make good candidates for mixing? Thanks again for the reply.

Jennings Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 It's not the shipping to the USA that's the problem, it's the shipping from the UK. Neither of those colors should be particularly hard to match. There are loads of 'standard' basic paint colors and model car and/or railroad colors that are going to be very close.

Robyjet Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Hello, you can try order here : http://www.aero-spezial-modellbauversand.de/ They ship Xtracolor to Italy with no problem, and are quite fast. Hope this helps you Ciao Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martin_sam_2000 Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Try this site: http://www.martola.com.pl/en They are based in Poland but I have had about 7 or so xtracolour paints mailed to me in Canada. I tested it with one colour and it worked so I ordered a bunch more of the harder to find british colours. I looked and they have both the yellow and the green in stock, Great service!!!

BU_Terrier Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Thanks again everyone. I'll see what I can do in either matching or finding a source. Again thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
