I was wondering, what y'all use or used for an oxide red for a box car? A non oxide is too glossy for me! I was thinking of red oxide primer from the auto body guys for my project boxcar.

| According to the Canadian National Railroad site, for freight car red, they recommend Dark Tuscan Oxide made by Modelflex. It is a water based paint.

Hmmm. When you said, "Boxcar Red," I expected a biography of a Communist hobo. This was good, too, though.
