O tej łodzi

Lately I've been working on an old Aerokit Solent lifeboat, its part renovation and part build completion.

    The Solent Lifeboat is a member of the Aerokits range that has eluded me so far.

    Most of the other models in their range I have either built or driven - but not the Solent Lifeboat.

    Les Rowell usually produced the designs for many good Classic Model Power Boats to be kitted (H&M, Aerokits, LesRo being the most well known).

    It was good to see that when he chose to deviate from his usual choice of cabin cruisers that he chose such a nice model to kit as the Solent Lifeboat.

    Thanks for the info about the orange paint and the undercoat - much appreciated.

    Bob.

    Hi Bob
    The paint is Hycote Double Acrylic Volkswagen Brilliant Orange, I used Halfords Plastic filler primer, which is a sort of yellowy green colour.

    The Hycote came from Amazon

    What paint do you use for the orange colour Martin, and do you need to use a pink undercoat to make it cover properly?

    Cheers, Pete😊
