Hi Don, The Spad is going to be covered with Sig Koverall and nitrate dope. I have used ordinary latex house paint in the past (Behr) and have had really good results. Unfortunately, with 7 different colours and the current price for a litre, the smallest size I can get, at $35.00/lt, I have to look at some other options. I'm considering the so called hobby/craft paints at this point. I have had some experience with them in the past and have been impressed. However, I have never sprayed them so that is something I will have to experiment with. Building always involves some experimenting. Lol

Hi Jim, Also building BUSA Spad, really interested in the colors and type of paint that you will be using. Very nice series!
