Of the AK Interactive Real Colors (lacquer) which are best for a late war boat? AK interactive lacquer paints flow through my gun beautifully and will not use another besides Life Colors (from Italy) as a close second. Would any members mind suggesting the best AK Interactive Real Color paint numbers that I should look to use on my 1/35 80 foot Elco late war boat. Thanks in advance

I glanced at their web site and did not see any marine colors. The only selections I saw were for aviation and ground (army/ armour) colors.

Jeno, you are correct, just yesterday I studied the AK RC RACK at my local shop and the Navy was sadly left out:( Their WWII British and German colors run beautifully through my H&S gun w/ no fouling thus I want to use their paints for my PT and sub projects... At this point as they do not have dedicated PT or Sub colors I'll have to play match up which is fine and not the first time

BTW appreciate this site and all the information that's been collected and offered.
