hi

can anyone suggest which yellow paint would be the best match for front yellow warning panel on a dapol class 33?

just wondering which brand of paint is going to be closest to their shade...

cheers

I used Humbrol Matt 24 yellow to paint the jumper housings on my 33/1, as these are orange on the model and should have been yellow on the BR blue version. Seemed a pretty good match. The loco is away for weathering at the moment so cannot share a photo.
