Tamiya Matt PS paint?
 
Does any one know the part number for the Tamiya PS matt paint/laquer?

Do you just paint the shell as per normal on the inside and spray this stuff on the outside of the shell?

Any tips for using this stuff??

PS55 Flar Clear - spray it on the outside after decals but mask the bits you want staying shiney like windows. :thumbsup:

Examples from Google:

Never used it. PS55 according to the Tamiya site.

I have used Matt Clear you put through a spray gun though, apply light coats (I would always recommend keying the surface up, obviously you'll have to mask the windows so they stay shiny). When I tried it first I put too much on and it went sort of semi gloss :blush: so I had to reflat it and then just put on a very gentle coat, one was plenty and it went properly matt.

Not sure how it will stand up to RC racing ?

Don't you just hate it when you post something up and while you've been posting someone else has already posted :p :lol:
