PT-26 Yellow

Post by Pete and Cindy Crawford »

'Hi everyone,
I am restoring a PT-26 in RCAF colors and plan to finish it in Stits. Are any of the standard Stits colors an accurate reproduction of the yellow used in the RCAF color scheme?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,
Pete Crawford

Why Use Stits? It is now called "Poly Fiber", but it is not the best
or easiest to use.

Very informative page. What I have done so far looks and feels like
tupper ware. (urathane all the way) no brushing, just spray the
primer 3 coats sand and shoot the color, messed it up? let it cure
out, sand, and shoot again.'

'Superflite or AirTech PPG products. Also like Hipec. Then Randolph Dope. Stits is at the very bottom of my list.
