That gold paint is awesome. Gitane did some amazing paint jobs. And the variety compared to the black and white if todays bikes. I used Testors gold with moderate success on a similar era Falcon. The Gitane gold is a deeper gold. I would say go to a hobby shop but are there any left? Where do sign painters go for their paint? Oh Wait, none of them left either. 😉
