Recently bought a Tamiya WRC Scooby radio controlled car, the Metallic Blue paint used to spray the shell is very similiar to the scooby Sonic Blue too (same as my MY00) so i have decided to start colour coding things to match my car!?

the first things was my mobile phone:

Spray paints TS-19 (Metallic Blue) and TS-13 (Clear) for plastics. Bought these from my local hobby shop at £3.99 each.

the next bits will be my car mobile phone holder, air freshner and my shoes :)

cheers, peccy.

peccy,

just thought it might be ok for stone chips etc ???
cheers alan

Do they do a Red Mica one ????? ;)

Hi Guys

I used to do a lot of spraying of model cars. Watch the Tamiya paint as it is Acylic and will chip off. I guess the mobile phone won't look to clever after a couple of weeks.

You can help the process by slightly scratching the surface that the paint needs to stick to by rubbing it with wire wool. This provides a surface for the pain to key to.

A few coats of Halfords acrylic laquer will protect it. Several light coats are best, let the laquer cure before rubbing it down.

I've done a few for people using some of my modelling materials. I can also do my own decals, so have even been sad enough to do one in 64f with silver P1 logos on it. Shame I've changed my phone now :(

However, the battery powered mobile phone chargers we import already come in sonic blue and the mica red, so I presume these are popular colours.
