Arri Paint?

[zijital]

I have a well used Arri 650 that is losing some paint.

Anyone know of what type of paint I would use for a new touch up?

(I'm guessing that I don't want to just walk into the paint store & do a color match w/ the cheapest stuff they have in stock.)

thanks

I would say use some black BBQ grill paint. It's probably the cheapest and easiest solution. It's not extremely durable, so make sure to do several coats. Turn the light on outside for 20 minutes or so after the paint dries before using it indoors. Lights such as mole-richardson and arri sometimes have coatings that are baked on at the factory, and therefore hard to re-create on your own.

appliance paint works well...probably the same as bbq/engine enamel...it's not expensive. heat is your biggest concern, so these will work.
