Much better to take an access panel in to a Auto Body supply shop and match some paint which can be put into a rattle can. Also, Simtec is Polyester. He was talking about a wing tip. If it is a patch and spray job Rustoleum would do just fine. Don't worry about perfect match, just mask and spray the whole tip. UH |
