You guys have probably covered this in the past but I was wondering if there is a paint kit available anywhere with the three "442" colors in it so a guy can repaint them to look new. I have several that are in great shape but the paint is all worn. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

442 Emblem Restoration:
To restore the 442 badge I've found three paints that match exactly. All three are Testors Model Master sprays. The first is called Italian Red # 28109, the next is Hugger Orange # 28108, and the last is Grabber Orange #28105. Use an exacto-knife to cut around the numbers after laying down a piece of masking tape. These paints will make your badge look like new. These are a two part spray system and require a clear coat.

Thanks Bubba and Jasen! I missed that on the website. Was thinking about getting them from www.thepartsplaceinc.com (cheaper than OPGI) but mine are in good shape, just faded. Maybe I'll try this first. -grant

Thanks for the info. Any particular place to get this paint or does it need to be ordered from somewhere? I've never heard of this brand. Appreciate the help.

If you don't have any close you can get them online from hobby shops.
