I use a Tamyia paint on my white LED's. It's 'Clear Yellow' P/N X-24.

The number of layers of paint on the light controls the amber color of 
the output.

I've found 2 layers gives a very pleasing color, but it's a matter of 
taste, use as much or as little as you want to achieve the desired 
shade of amber...

together, except for the handrails, today.   The model is beautiful, 
but the first thing I noticed when turning on the power is the very 
bright white LED headlight and marker lights.   We have talked about 
this with models on many occasions, but as this is the Zephyr from 
1934, would the headlight have been bright white or a more subdued 
amber?   I am thinking the white LED is too bright for that period.   
If it is, does anyone have any thoughts on how to change the light to a 
more prototypical appearance.   Has anyone mentioned this to Con-Cor or 
am I letting my imagination go overboard?   I have only seen the PZ 
years ago displayed outdoors at the Museum of Science and Industry with 
no lighting.
