Testors drops Model Master, Pactra and Aztek lines - according to MR News - Model Railroader Magazine

I can't understand the really fears and lost which is expressed in this thread.

Floquil is gone, now Testors like Model Master is gone; when I read the comments seems you can't paint anymore in the future.

I'm sorry but there are numerous perfect brand of model colors to use for our hobby.

I never used Floquil paint, just a very very few Pollys scale and probably one Model Master colors.

None have give me  an unforgettable memory really.

Really I don't need them and if I used them, no trouble a  substitue exist.

I paint a model each week, by brush or with one of my airbrush; most are not painted with model colors, I use for the most Golden Artist acrylics colors, the rest is from Vallejo, MIG, AK and Tamiya colors; I also use craft paint from Decor Art and Folk art.

I paint this way since 40 years, I use the colors which I need,no matter the origin.

Perfect result, and since I model in Nscale I can say paint has a scale; these paints don't eat details on model in N scale because of thickness.

These colors don't fade in time and are very easy to use and except Tamiya you have around 130 colors to choice from in each brand....more than enough I think

The military model community say these colors are first rate quality for modeling; knowing the quality of models they produce, the artistic paint job they do,  this is a real testimonial about these colors and their use.

All these brand offer satellite products and special colors like wash, pastel chalk, special paint kit for special effect, glue and many other stuff with a first rate quality.

Yes may be the special "reefer orange" don't exist anymore, but nearly the same or may be a match one exist in these colors line, and saying a color from 50 years ago is the prototype one is probably not the truth, because pictures give only a rendering of the color not the accurancy of it, so you can go easily this way I think.

In any case forget Floquil, Polly scale and now Testors; they are gone for ever !

Go ahead, they are numerous excellent colors on the market.
