Elusive Shade Of Paint

[beetleman]

Is there a cream or off-white color available for polycarbonate? I've been searching endlessly for this color. Tamiya doesn't make it so I thought of mixing white, yellow, and a little black. But I cannot find PC-1 (white) currently anywhere for sale (I would of course prefer a ready made paint).

I want to paint a lexan beetle body to match my 1:1. Please help if you know something!

I created this shade for a VW I did.

I used Fastcolor mixed and painted it with an airbrush.

I don't recall exactly, but it was white, with a little yellow, and a touch of black.

Hi Skottoman,

Yes I remember us corresponding about this almost a year ago (jeez has it been that long). It's from you that I got the colors required for the mix. However I've been able to obtain only Pactra black. Just found today the yellow PC-6 on ebay, but cannot find the white (PC-1). I thought maybe someone on TC might know of a ready-made color.

Cheers buddy
