(erielack) Model Paints Accurate for the Erie / EL



List Modelers:

Recently there has been more discussion on paint and paint color appropriate
to the Erie and EL.  No one mentioned 'Accu-Paint' as I recall.  You don't
seem to see these paints in model shops anymore but I understand they are
still produced by a company called SMP Industries.
Their paint is supposed to be a solvent based lacquer that dries quickly.  I
have heard brass modelers talk the finish up.  They advertise Erie and El
colors on their web sight.  Does anybody have any recent experience with
these paints on plastic? on brass? Fidelity to "the real thing" in color
match - close?  not even close?   Opinions???
