Badger Modelflex Paints are acrylic and have a wide variety of
RR colors.
Scalecoat I and II. Scalecoat I is a solvent based paint
whereas Scalecoat II is acrylic. I have found that Scalecoat I
is okay on plastics if you put a protective undercoat on the
model first.
There are other paints available ... some that may interest
you are Vallejo, Humbrol, AccuPaint and Tamiya.”
