Russ Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I'm building a VQ Kawasaki that comes with stick on frame structure for the canopy, but I would rather paint the frame, which paint is the best use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ashby - Moderator Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Russ, an enamel or acrylic should be ok. Are you painting the tram rails left by the moulding on the inside? If not I like using a stick-on/peel-off tape called Ultra Mask on canopies. It goes round curves and has a great edge that paint wont slip under.

Russ Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 Thanks David, I was unsure wether to paint the inside or out, but now I think I'll paint the outside using ultra mask, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russ Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 I googled ultra mask and their website came up 1st, ordered the tape and paint before reading your non sales pitch. The also have a great stock of war plane colours for many nations. Mentioned RCM&E in my order. Russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
