Yea, that's what I thought but apparently Acrylic Lacquer is being
phased out here in the states. I have located some custom paint companies in the US but there is only one red and one white. Lacquer is so easy to use, light, thin, used to be cheap, and like you said patches perfect. If anyone knows a source, I'd appreciate hearing about it. For the mean time on this little red spot, I found a spray can that is a very close match. If I can't find any Acrylic Lacquer, I'll finish working the elevator in Gelcoat. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------ Newsgroup: rec.aviation.soaring Subject: LS-4 Red Trim paint color Author: Wsburhen Date/Time: 17:00 15 September 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------ you could also use acrylic laquer, which has huge advantages over over nitro and no real disadvantage (it can be shot very thin) or a basecoat/clearcoat system, while a bit more work, can also be done thin/light and will be many times more durable than nitrocellulose. Either of these two systems can be EXACTLY color matched and are locally available anywhere at an autobody supply store. Try Ditzler Duracryl for acryl laquer, or Deltron for b/c system, or other types by Sikkens, Martin-Senor, Glasurit, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------ |
