ok a can that i have is testors competition orange #1227

testors being the brand and "competition orange" the colour

i dont know of any "competition" series of paints

michaels might have it, otherwise a hobby shop that carries plastic model kits will have it

this can is actually gloss orange, but the can will be similar and say #1227 Competition Orange instead of #1268 Gloss Orange

Wouldn't Plasticote work or like krylon?

oh... is this paint to paint over the little bulbs behind the dash so they light up a different color ?? if so do they sell it in yellow ?? and is there any chance of this paint burning off the bulbs from the heat ?? thanks

i'm no expert but painting interior dash lights would mean this should be in the interior section

Hey, there was a store in Guelph where I used to buy the ****. Just grab the yellow pages and call every hobby store in your area. That's how I found mine. Also, remember that the heat of the light will break down the paint and it will fade in about 3-4 months, and also it'll stain the inside of your cluster.

the CORRECT way to do this, is to go the Honda and ask for the CRV cluster condoms

Although I do believe the condoms do dim the light somewhat

i think its pretty good idea, not that hard, plus my dash is already out of my car!

but u think if i goto honda and get those CRV condoms
will it look the same? never seen them
