Elf grill badge refurb
This subject has been highlighted before a few years ago and nobody replied. what colour enamel do you use on the grill badge. I'm a Hornet owner so have never had to do one, I am doing it for display purposes in a Man shed as Its a bit battered but I would it to look it's best. Thanks for any advice you can give. Paul.

I used a paint from the Tamiya model paint range. I can't find the pot right now.

Re: Elf grill badge refurb
Thanks for your reply
I used a acrilic paint from the Range store which came in a packet.of 6 or 7 different colours ,I borrowed it off a mate who does models.I then sprayed it with a clear lacquer after painting it with a very small brush. It wasn't brilliant as the paint dries that quick it hard to get a good finish..As I said it wasn't going on a car and if do another one I would find a way of spraying the blue and buffing the paint off the Elf letters
I didn't ask how anyone applied the paint. ,,. Regards. Paul
