Shackleton spray paint


Lord Riot

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where I can buy Satin Dark Sea Grey spray paint (Humbrol 164 or equivalent) to paint an AEW Shackleton please?

 

Every website appears to have sold out, except Amazon where it's over £20 a can (!) and an Irish site that with p&p means it's about £15 for 150ml! 

 

Why is it so hard to get this colour as a spray!? Does anybody know if one of the home DIY stores sell an equivalent grey spray that would look almost identical as satin dark sea grey?

Hi  Lord Riot 

                Have you tried your local Halfords they can mix the colour that you want I have had satin Gray mixed by them in store  all you need to do is quote this  BS number BS381c 638 as 300ml cost  £15 to mix,  the paint is acrylic, but I do recommend you use there plastic primer just in case. and the primer will cost about £7  you will have enough paint left to do a couple of more small to medium models
