Not so long ago yours truly found a 1960s Suydam-imported Chicago North Shore & Milwaukee interurban coach for a pretty reasonable sum, thus putting me in the "brass side" of this hobby. The model is not in the correct paint scheme, which brings me to my question: When painting brass, what types of paint have you had and not had success with? Right now I'm leaning toward using Scalecoat 1 to paint this NSL car, but I'd like to hear experiences of others. For the benefit of anyone reading this (and myself), feel free to share any Dos and Don'ts that go with painting brass.
That old car might be worth money!
