I need help figuring out the FEC funny blue, thanks in advance.

For the FEC blue I would suggest starting with Mopac blue.If it isn't dead on it is damn close.

Still a long way to go

I really wanted to use Tamiya paint but was force to use scale coat II which takes forever to dry and not very durable, seems to chip very easily

Scalecoat II when applied correctly is one of the most durable paints, along with Scalecoat I, on the market. The only reasons for it to chip would be inadequate surface prep, or poor application of a primer if used.

I've used both types of paint since they've first been on the market, and they have rarely given me a problem.

I washed the shell with plain soapy water, Tamiya white primer, thanks for the input
