Luca Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Hi everyone, I am just about to start building a wooden classic flight box for the field My question is on what paint to use. It needs to be nitro-resistand and I am not sure if any spray paint will beAny idea which one would suit the job? do I need a specific Rc paint or I could use a DIY spray paint?ThanksRegardsLuca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codename-John Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 you could use something like this or this, or just normal paint with a fuelproof coating on top, theres a clear fuelproofer in the 2nd link same price as the coloured paint so it makes more sense just to paint it with coloured, there are cheaper ones but id say just use the one off the links for ease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH 82A Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Any gloss polyurethane paint , ( from DIY shop ) will be fuelproof, as will the "Hammerite" paints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
