G'day Allan,
I used tamiya PS paint on my 67 Chevelle, (pink/gold)
It's rubber like so you can't do any masking off because it will lift leaving you with a real crappy line.
But you can paint the body one colour, just do it in several light coats NO WET COATS. Then use Tamiya clear to bring it to a nice shine.
Also try spraying it on other base colours instead of just black, never know what colour you might come up with.
