I’m putting this here because someone may need it in the future. It’s a screen shot of zeros own PDF’s found on their website.
Can you read it, or has it destroyed the quality and now it’s a blurry mess?

Actually not too bad, even for my eyes.
Good reference. 😁☹

I'm trying to get a Zero Paint color in the USA. Its Sterling Green Part No: ZP-1484. I found Hiroboy ships to the USA but they want about $40 US dollar to ship it. That's a little over four times the cost of the paint itself. AAAARRRGGG! There is one supplier in the USA that sells Zero Paint but they don't seem to have that color. I hope I can find some kind of substitute of another brand of paint available here.

Have you tried gravity paints? People say they are good, not tried them as I have to order from Spain.

I'm not familiar with them and I don't know if I can get them in the USA either.

They are airbrushing paints and I think they originate in USA

I just looked up Gravity paints and I did find them in Spain as that is where they originate from. They do have the color but I don't think I'll be able to get it from them either. I did some searching around and there are no US sellers.

I was at my club meeting yesterday and talking to some guys about this. They told me to use Scale Finishes. They are in the USA and can custom mix colors for you. Plus they will be at our upcoming annual show/contest next month. The ACME Southern Nationals.

I was looking on Facebook and someone has got some Pro Scale Paints. Never heard of these before but they are in the UK so hopefully a replacement for Zero. This is what the guy had delivered.
Anyone used these before?

I was able to get the color I need from Scale Finishes here in the USA. He was able to custom mix it for me. Really fast response and service too! I got a 2 oz bottle ready for airbrushing for $15 plus $5 shipping. I got it in about a week or so from the time I contacted him about it too.
