Which Humbrol paint?

[Nur0fen]

Apologies for starting a brand new topic - I've searched pretty much most of the posts here but I can't find the answer I'm looking for.

 

I'm in the process of modding my MR bucket and I need to repaint the frown and touch up the filler that I've used to sort out the ugly gap in the faceplate but I can't find the best matchs for the grey and white finishes.

 

Does anyone know the part numbers for the HUmbrol paints that match?

 

Thanks for your help troopers

hey mate

 

i take it the putty u used isnt white then? onyl asking cos if u look up UKG site - it suggest using white silicone : -----

 

not sure wot colour is used for small white touch ups, but whole helmet sprats - head to Halfords seems to be the general consensus

 

the grey match is quite well known both on here and UKG site - Humbrol no.5

 

consider signing up to UKG if u are interested in trooping - really helpful bunch over there.

 

pm me if u need mroe info - I am pretty new here; so still have quite a bit of info still fresh in my head

Thanks for that, I've only just got my UKG account approved so I'll head over there in a bit. I used silicon but it's bubbled up a bit and the lid is a bit marked where I've rubbed it off so I need to touch up the white as well as repaint the frown - doh!

Top stuff, thanks for your help guys. Was worried I'd have to spray the whole lid!
