I was recently given this to paint:
I discussed the paint job with the owner. He wants the car painted like Canadian National's 1954- 1962 scheme.
I have both the paint and the decals for the project but I've never painted a brass car before. From the looks of it it has a clear coat from the factory since there is no sign of tarnish or oxidization. I suppose I can just paint directly over the current finish, possible scuffing it slightly to give the paint a bit of 'tooth'?
