It is called Insignia Yellow, FS-33538. Check your local hobby shop a company named Testor's Manufactures a brand called Model Masters and carries it in Small Spray cans. It may be Flat finish, butthey sell a coating for both semi-gloss and gloss. (Before the eyes started to go I built 1/35 scale MV models)

This is my recommondation if all you are going to do is the hood numbers and such. Cost about $5.00 per can.

Hope this helps...
