Help on some paint!

After seeing the paint list of the Top Secret GT-R there were some paints listed that I don't have. So, who makes the paint Iron black and Burnt iron in a bottle and is there any alternatives? Also what is the difference between Tamiya's Titanium Gold, Gold, and Gold Leaf?

can any one help?

Gold Leaf is just their 'gold' color in acrylic. Titanium gold is a more pale version, like it's cut with silver. Gold is the spray lacquer, which is probably a close match for Gold Leaf (Almost all of their spray colors match their bottled colors).

Testors sells a Burnt Iron in their Metalizer line, but no Iron Black that I could find.

Who makes the car? Hasegawa, and probably every other Japanese company besides Tamiya, use Gunze Sangyo/Mr Color paints in the manuals. I have the color charts someplace if you need them.

Hey,

Check out the testors metalizers for the metalic paints you mentioned.

Thanks you guys and Aoshima makes the car http://www.hlj.com/scripts/hljpage.cgi?AOS03457

Burnt Iron is a GSI Creos colour I think. Not sure about Iron Black, could it have been Metal Black?

no it says iron black http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/503/19614610039757t.jpg

Hmm. Those don't match my Gunze color chart: Is a specific company called for in the manual?

An IPMS Sweden website suggests that Tamiya X-10 Gunmetal is a substitute for Burnt Iron.

I still can't find anything on 'Iron Black'. Might the translation from Japanes affect the wording?

The "C" color is GSI Creos (i.e. C28)..and from the HLJ website...

Looks like a light gunmetal might be a close match

hth,

Who makes light gun metal and can I mix gun metal with something like silver to get a light gunmetal?

Model Master Acrylic
Tamiya Acrylic
Tamiya Synthetic Lacquer
Mr Color
