Hi, i am soon going to buy my first model but had a question about the paint and knowing which to get. Do most kits come with a code of any kind explaining what colour paints to get? also what is the best type of paint to get? thanks in advance  :-)

Hi 'LennonFan',

Welcome to the Mayhem!

Different materials and surfaces need different preparation and paints, what materials will you be painting?

An excellent item on painting and varnishing is featured on the Model Boats site.
