Quick ?
Quick ?
I recently picked up a rattle can from Tamiya called Lame flake, the top says paint black over the top, so is this just clear with flake or black flake like the paint can top suggests? Getting nothing from the Tamiya site.

. . . you have Associated Green Slime for brains. And not even new Green Slime, but old gooped out Green Slime.

Re: Quick ?
How about you spray a test patch on some spare lexan or paper or whatever... See what colour you get and run with it?

Re: Quick ?
I wonder if its as expensive as other Tamiya paints? I've always likes the metalflake look...might be a nice way to change up some paint

Re: Quick ?
It is same price as most other PS cans. Only the Anodised Akuminium are dearer.
Lame Flake pops the best over black but any colour still looks ok.
Also can be used to ghost on pattern/flames/etc.

$ 15 for a can, good news it can be used with any color you like. It was easy to use and make look good, 2 light coats and on with the color, I'll try to post the finished body as soon as I get it mounted up. Thanks for your help.
