Hey Y'all;

Have had some repainting success - so far . . .

Am changing Virginia & Truckee cars in 1890 - 1910 yellow with green trim to 1870-something wine/maroon/dark cherry.

Took a gamble and tried some Burgandy color Krylon FUSION for plastic yard furniture and stuff over factory yellow.
It worked   ;D

Even worked over hunter green Krylon Fusion where had previously painted yellow underframe to better match later yellow and green scheme.

Paint did do a couple tiny bits of odd texture over gold lettering, but that's okay, will be overlaid with decals.

--> Next question, will Fusion work over that gloss black paint on a Durango & Silverton boiler?

And do they have the color I want anyway?
Hmm . . . be back in a moment.
