"Humbrol 114" nearest modern enamel equivalent?

Post by CementNotGlue »

Hi all

Before someone asks, what is it for? I've not yet acquired it! (instructions online)

I think it's either green or grey or a mixture of both!

Happy to matt-varnish it latter.

Thanks in anticipation

Its not just how good your painting is, its how good the touch-ups are too.

Thanks Fred
An e-mail to Airfix led to a quick reply:

"I can confirm the nearest to the older 114 Humbrol paint is 131"

Worth pointing out in initial question whether your happy spraying/applying varnishes.
