I posted this in the Yokomo forum as well but then realized that this is probably a better place.
I just messaged Masami on Facebook about what green he uses on his bodies and he got back to me right away but with little information. He said it was a mixed color and he doesn't know the ratios. What has everyone or anyone found with their own testing to be the best match? Whatever color it is it seems to be always backed in white but it also sorta has a metallic look. I've tried two shades of green in Tamiya (bright green and metallic) and neither is a good match. Anyone else have info????

Okay, thanks Peakey.
On the website, they list racing green, lime, neon, metallic, and spearmint. I think metallic looks the closest -- although it looks a little brighter but maybe it's due to different lighting. I reckon I'll order a can and try...
Anybody ever come across a green paint that matches up with the option flouro green tub on the rc10 ?.... I checked on testors web site but kinda hard to tell if it would be florescent green or rally green unless i see it in person. Rally green...

No offence here but I would worry about getting the chassis done first then worry about painting the body.
As far as achieving the right color it is done in layers do a few light coats and back with a light or white color. The lighter the backing...
So, I got another chunk of g-10, and it is really green. Dosent match anything else I have, so Im cutting complete matching sets from it.
I hadnt run the wrks 91 programs in a loong time either, so this was a perfect oportunity to check old...

Yeah same with my stuff. It seems like for what they charge for shipping they could pack it with care. It's usually 1/4 undersized on at least one dimension and corners are stuffed cause of not being passed. I wish McMaster would get some decent...
I recently bought a huge lot of stuff from a fellow member on this site. There was some really cool stuff that I got. Here is one of the projects I built combining some of the parts I got with some parts I already had. I think it came out...

thanks for the wheel info. nice to see something other than white or yellow.
I got these from a chop shop on eBay for a couple of dollars. He was parting out re-re Worlds Cars.
Is there anything I can do to make them white ? I'm familiar with peroxide bath to freshen up old parts. Will that help brand new green stuff though...

I hate to hear that because I sure didn't want to have to dye them black.
What did you end up trying? In the same boat with some rather green bellcranks and ballcups...
I wound up installing them. Once installed, the greeness isn't as...
Oops just realised the bidder I beat's ID looked familiar, no-one on here was it?
I just stuck a bid in last minute as they looked in such good condition, and they are, a strange black gripper in the rear hexes?
