Keep 'em comin Peter That's Xtracolor Lt. Sea Grey Peter. Nice and smooth and shiny! I really like Xtracolor. Too bad it can't be imported to the US. I need to find someone in England to ship me a batch.
Peterpools Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 John Thanks for the info .. are they enamels, just not sure? They absolutely do shoot beautifully .. of course the skills of the painter is the missing ingredient. Keep 'em comin Peter 1
