Clint's Silver Paint Marker Secret
Permalink  

A while back Clint kindly sold me some interior trim pieces and even included a marker to properly retouch the silver/chrome interior trim on it.  I later used that marker to touch up an NOS dash cluster, and it was pretty close to perfect, so thought I would share the link I found when searching for replacements, as I'm going to do the silver lining on the grill with them.

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/TAMIYA-89011-PAINT-MARKER-X-11-CHROME-SILVER/141905143189?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

They're also available on Amazon, and Amazon has what is (I'm only guessing) the same Tamiya paint in bottles:

    https://smile.amazon.com/Tamiya-Models-Acrylic-Chrome-Silver/dp/B0099WPOS8/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1528120335&sr=1-1&keywords=tamiya+x-11+paint&dpID=41HIQWe09vL&preST=_SX342_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

I hope it wasn't supposed to be a secret!

I used them for around my cluster surround, and even on the tail lights & front signal lights. It takes a while for the paint to fully cure, but it looks quite good.

I got the original one at the hobby shop at the corner of MacLeod Tr & 50th Avenue, but got later ones at the hobby shop on Ogden Road (in the old hotel looking building).  I think they had to order them in for me.
