Have you ever had the urge to test the authenticity of your Fluorescent paints and decals?
No....... neither have I.
Until I found myself at my modelling desk recently fitting some batteries to a black light for one of my daughters toys and thought.... why not....lol
Anyway, here are a few pics including Ebbro's MP4/30, many aftermarket M@r!b*r* decals and check out that jar of Barchetta M@r!b*r* McLaren red and the needles on BestBalsKits gauges.

Testing the authenticity OF fluorescent paint and decals
Re: Testing the authenticity OF fluorescent paint and decals
Yes, believe it or not it's an old trick And yes it's quite spooky yet effective. Anyway, in the end, for small details (such as red lines on Prost's helmet) you can be happy with just a reddish orange
Then obviously there's the color hue. There's MP4/7, its decals are fluo but too red...
Good to remind the trick, thanks!
