Hi everyone! Just want a little confirmation from the experts if the inside nozzle color  of this jet is really Humbrol 103 cream (read from a few articles) or any cream for that matter, or this is already an old school? Please advise. Thanks in advance!

I use medium grey - nothing specific, just a contrast to the outside colour.

 

I also then mask off those grey areas - before assembling the intakes as its almost impossible to do afterwards......

After the full build and painting the final lower colours, I can then - just - remove the Tamiya masking tape with tweezers.

 

I haven't found a better way of doing them.

 

Here's what the real thing looks like......

The inside colour can vary from light to medium grey depending on the outer colour scheme.
