painting a shell... What paint is possible? brushed?

[vibrating_cake]

Now I know this is strange but I've made the tamiya models before where you paint with those little pots and a brush. 

Can we use these paints on a clear rc shell? Is it flexible enough. From the outside you have the clear shell which creates the smooth shiny finish so brush marks won't be a problem.

Or is there a specific make of paint you can brush on the inside of a shell? 

Reasons being I want to do  multiple shades of one colour (light blue) but still spray the overlay colour (silver) or underlay, I can't remember wether you go from dark to light or vice versa. 

But yes, I'd much prefer to use a brush than masking. That also means I can mix paint

Hi,Think it may depend on the sort of paint you would need,may only be able to get spray,an interesting idea though.

You can use a brush with faskolour paints as the tamiya pots for polycarbonate shells stopped production a few years back personally using liquid mask and spray tins or airbrushing are best for results

Where can I get liquid mask from? Never heard of this stuff
