as we all know the good stuff (testor model master acrylic) is very hard to come by these days. I need one more white bottle unfortunatly. Was wondering if any one has tried using non model master acrylic paint by testors?
If so what's the difference if any? and how did it turn out? or does anyone at least know what the difference is between testers model master acrylic and just testors acrylic (non model master)?

I wasn't aware Testors made acrylic paint that wasn't model master. I thought all the rest was enamel, so I cannot help out there.
As far as reefer white, I believe that may be a color aimed at model railroaders. Reefer is a kind of boxcar and many model railroad colors had reefer in the name. I'm not sure this is of any help, but it might give you a direction to search in. Best of luck.

https://www.amazon.com/Testors-28122...7FBGZYMF&psc=1 Standard testors seems a bit more basic in offerings

I found this page for Floquil Reefer White. Floquil is a brand that was popular in the model railroad crowd. According to this page, they were owned by Testors so I assume this would be the same color.
The link has a sample color and RGB values. https://www.myperfectcolor.com/paint...1-reefer-white Thanks, that info helps me out a lot!
