I am about to place an order for some Tamiya spray cans (love the stuff) and have a Mclaren F1 kit coming in the mail and was wondering if anyone knows which red should be used on the car...."Flourescent Red" (TS-36) or the "Bright Red" (TS-49)?

Dan is right, fluorescent red is the correct color for the Mclaren

Yeah, what they said - TS-36 Fluorescent Red. Be very light with the coats, it doesn't cover too well and will need a clear top coat for a final glossy finish.

And never mask over it, unless you have a clear coat over it. This applies even when using Tamiya Masking Tape. A tricky colour...
