Touch Up Paint for Lionel 2245 Texas Special (Postwar)
Posted by pgtr on Tuesday, January 28, 2014 10:16 PM

I have one here that has a lot of edgewear, nicks, scratches dings and what not. I thought I'd touch up the worst ones. Any recommendations for a commonly available shade of red that comes reasonably close? Perhaps one of the major brands of spray paint (I can spray some in a small cup to brush from) or a particular shade of automotive touch up bottles?

Thanks!
