    get some Testors candy apple red online. The paint needs to be transparent.

    Another option is: take some clear coat, mix a few drops of your favorite red, throw it in a spray gun and go to work!

                    Just make sure you clear them with automotive-grade clear, or the paint will oxidize and turn hazy/matte after just a few weeks in the elements. Model paint is not made withstand outdoor exposure to sun and weather.
