Question flat red spray

does anyone know if any company makes flat red spray paint??? I know tamiya has flat black and some others but no red. are there any companies that make it??? i haven't been able to find any.

I can't seem to make my brush painting look smooth. so i've been thinken of getten a airbrush. found one at a local hobby shop but it uses those compressed air cans. dunno if its the right way to go since i don't know much about this.

please help me so confused

tips on brush painting, thoughts on airbrushes, or if ya know where i can get flat red spray would be much appreciated

thanks thanks

I'm pretty sure that I have seen flat red automotive paint, maybe it is primer, but not sure about model paints.

There is also flat, orangy-red auto primer that might suit something like seats etc.

You could always use Testors Dullcote over gloss red. That will give you a flat red. You could also make you own "dullcote" by mixing Tamiya flat base with Future floor polish. I can't remember the exact ratios but by varying amounts you can adjust the amount of sheen.

Ummmm Testors make a Flat red, paint #1150, To me it works really well, but it's not a spray can, you can use it on an airbrush though. I used it on the seats of my supra.
