I believe Tamiya TS-19 metallic blue is pretty close.

I believe Tamiya TS-19 metallic blue is pretty close. Thank you for the help, what would you suggest on how I mask the car for painting tho, should I paint the whole car blue first then paint the white? I am having trouble with the curves on the blue around the hood. |

Always paint the lightest color first. I suggest getting some Tamiya thin line tape for masking.

Tamiya has curved masking tape. Has any one used it?

Tamiya has curved masking tape. Has any one used it? Are you talking about the thin line yellow tape or is this something new? |

Saw this on Ebay but have not bought any. It is Tamiya curved tape.  |

I picked some up today, and got the blue, I grabbed white primer as well, so I'm gonna get started hopefully in a couple of days I will have the car all done. Thanks for the help
