I'm looking for the lunch box, box art colour. I see it's the ts-16, but it looks to bright to me. So the question is it just my computer that fools me or is it the manual?

I'm also looking for a place to buy som ts spray cans from. Is there a problem ordering spray from hong kong (im in sweden)? Any thoughts or experience on buying spray internationally are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Speaking of all things TS spray wise,where are we with them being available over here in blighty again? Are they still out of stock everywhere or are they in stores once again?

still not officially stocked in the uk. some say due to labelling issues, some say due to the way the paint is made - not legal in UK? contains lead or something?

either way it aint here at the moment (officially). usually can find most colours on ebay though.

the yellow in the LB is manual is the right one.

i actually painted mine with the ps equivalent yellow, then gave it some coats of clear. i used the ps colour, as i had on my paint shelf and wanted to get it done!

I used ford signal yellow from halfords suggested to me by another TC member and it looks sweet, almost matches the plastic yellow of the wheels, and its really hard wearing just buy the matt primer and give it a few coat of that 1st.

I just finished a FAV and sprayed it TS-16 it is a very vibrant colour http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...0&sid=24856

At first I thought it was too bright but it has grown on me heaps its more of a Banana colour I really like the colour it sprays well and coverage is even.

I pre warm any cans of spray I use first by placing them in warm water for a few minutes then give them a good shake and another few minutes in warm water.

I can recommend TS-16 :)

Ok thanks. Strange thou, the more i look at it, the more I think it ain't. I looks allot like ts-47 or ts-34. If just one more could confirm that 30cm is right, I'll believe it. I don't say you're lying, I just find it hard to believe.

I saw this fav (that looks great by the way) and that's what gave me second thoughts about the ts-16 yellow. I'm after the darker yellow that I have on my lunch box, for my mud blaster resto.. I don't know which one it is :/ as i bought my lunchie second hand, built and painted.

Any yellow is right really. The TS 16 is just the suggested one.

Pick a shade of yellow you like the look of!

I know the TS 16 looks really good though. Brighter the better!

I'm in the middle of my LB build and I plan to paint mine with plastikote gloss yellow! I used this for my last LB (sadly no longer have as I stupidly sold it due to an offer I couldn't refuse) and it looked fantastic! I highly recommend that you have a good look at plastikote's range of spray paints! Perfect for the abs shells and wheels too!

Shame they dont make a vast amount of colours though! :)

Cheers

Fair enough but you can buy plastikote spray paint at just about any diy store in the UK so I'm sure its available in Sweden too! :);)
