Chromate yellow paint from a spray can

If you’re looking for a spray-can equivalent to zinc chromate yellow, try Liquitex cadmium yellow medium — a perfect match to Testors bottled zinc chromate yellow. It is water-based and goes on smoothly. I have already used it to paint interior details on a 1/48 scale Corsair and it looks great. I bought mine at a Michael’s craft store. It came in a 12-ounce can.
