I have been spraying my decorations up with Tamiya TS-21 as suggested by Mr T.

I need to touch up a few fixed parts by hand. I can't use the spray, so what colour can I use that will match the TS-21, or can you somehow get the paint from the can to brush with?

Hi Rob
I have needed to do this many times, you can just hold a small container like a lid near the spray can nozzle and squirt a little against the side, it will stay liquid for a good while and can be brushed on. Your brush cleanup will then have to be done with turps though.

I agree with Steve, touching up with anything else is likely to give you match issues.

Cheers fellas, I'll spray some out. I only need a tiny bit anyway. Just where I had to pull one of the decorations off and the paint came off slightly. Nothing major at all.
