Restoring hub caps - gmc red color?

[nb96z]

Anyone know what what color to use for the red circle and GMC logo?

Starting to restore the hub caps.

Thanks.

If you build models or know someone who does, they may have Testors flat red paint in a jar. That is what I would use.

Exactly this is what I would do. ^^^^

For the later full wheelcovers with the black center with Chrome and red GMC lettering, I used Testors red metallic (candy apple red). Makes it sparkle a little bit. Or a translucent red would work if the letters are good and shiny clean. Tamiya clear red....

Here’s the four caps before paint.

And after with black and Testor’s.

Did you just brush them? What paint and brush did you use?
