Coca-Cola red

[ash74]

Hello All

I am wondering if anyone has some suggestions for an approximate Coca-Cola red. I am sure I read here somewhere that either model master Guards red or Italian red are close, but I cannot find the thread. Or does anyone else have suggestions? I have access to Tamiya, Humbrol/Revell & some older Model master paints. I use enamels, but can be tempted by the Tamiya lacquer paints. Thanks

Italian Red has more orange in it. Testor Guard's Red is the same as their common #3 red, available in little bottles and spray cans.

Try a spoon text with black primer and whatever reds you come up with....

Tamiya Bright Red looks very close to me.
