But which shade? Can anybody advise which Tamiya yellow spray paint (not for airbrush) is closest to the DHL yellow....I'm thinking TS47 ... Chrome Yellow.

G'day Marty - this website looks like it might be useful. I hope it is.

EDIT: You've got good eyes, mate :thumbup: Tamiya quote the same RGB for Chrome Yellow as the site above gives for DHL Yellow.

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'

In terms of pure colour match, I agree with TS47. Not sure what finish that's going to give though.
