Black pearl paint
Posted by HEAVYGUNS155 on Sunday, December 20, 2015 7:43 AM

I'm building a munster koach and want to paint it the original black pearl. Does anyone know where I might find a matching paint. Any help would be appreciated

                     Thank You

Randy -

You might locate some at one of the radio control car sites, or ask on the auto section here on the FSM forum.

In years past I have made it myself, with pearl base coats, then heavily thinned enamel top coats. Looked pretty convincing, a little experimenting should give a reasonable effect.

Hope you locate some.

Closest thing on the Testors website is a smoke grey pearl. I know they used to have a black pearl paint as I had used it on a tbird, but that was a decade back. You can try mcw automotive finishes. They match everything.
