Does anyone know if there is a paint available that matches the light greenish-gray color of the P.H. Zero? If so, who makes it and what is the color called?

The paint on my P.H. Zero's antennae mast is popping off after my son got a little too happy with it. I'm glad the mast is flexible enough that it didn't break, but the paint wasn't quite as durable. :lol:

Thanks!

Try Tamiya paints. They has specific colors like IJN aircraft gray.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

Dog, you may want to take your airplane to the paint section at Home Depot and have them "scan" the fuselage. After that, they can sell you a pint of that very same color.

In the past, they've been very good about matching colors for me.

Happy New Year and keep the SARs going.
