Hi Gang:
I am mixing up a small batch of R-390 and R-390A panel touchup
paint. The test sample I mixed up looks great. I decided to go with
oil-based paint because it dries harder and cover scratches, small
dings, etc, in your front panel better than Latex-based paint. It
can be thinned and sprayed with an airbrush or even can be delivered
in a spray can.
I used a COLLINS and EAC panel for the color matching. Since the
color was to the same spec this should match all R-390 and 390A
panels. This paint should also match R-389 and R-391s as
well. However, no guarantees.
Problem is that I need to mix up a lot more than I need and so if
anyone is interested I can look into getting some small paint bottles
and offering them for sale.
Anyone interested? Price would be around $7.00 plus
postage. Perhaps if some of you want a larger quantity, say to paint
a complete panel, I could offer a larger-size bottle as well.
