Hi Mitch,
Mike Rhoades sells paint specially colour-matched for Meccano. He can be reached by telephone on 01482 650463 - he does not have e-mail. Here are a couple of links to sites that explain the colour changes over the years: http://www.nzmeccano.com/AboutPaint.php http://www.internationalmeccanome...tseries/ColourSchemes/colours.htm If you are not too fussy about an exact match them Plasti-Kote spray cans have some colours that are fairly close to Meccano colours and a lot of people use those. you could even make up your own colour scheme - lots of modellers do! I hope this helps... Ralph
