Does anyone out there know the paint formula (not the YY 81500 code) for butternut yellow? I've tried finding it on the web, no luck. Any help is appreciated.

I had to repaint the side of a Butternut car and i wanted to do it bc/cc so i could blend it. I had my Dupont rep take a picture with the Dupont Chromavision camera and it came up with a perfect match. I could have panel painted it.I forget what the color was called. It was out of the fleet color catalog.(Having a brain freeze,Dupont guys know what that catalog is called?) I would get your paint store to shoot it with the camera if you have a good color sample. Thats assuming you dont use the formula for the acrylic enamel that Bill supplied. In some instances where an old enamel formula is all thats available i have shot the enamel on a test panel,then had them take a picture with the camera and come up with a match in base coat clearcoat formula. I did this on a 72 chevelle that was a Pea Green metallic(forget the name) and it came back with 2000 VW color that was a DEAD match. But also sometimes the camera will come up with a color not even close. tomg Sep 11th, 05, 06:09 PM thanks to everyone, I think this is what I'm looking for!! Yes, I am trying to blend it in. There was a rust spot the size of a dime I sanded down today and put primer over it (and some bondo). Hopefully this will work out!! Thanks again.+ |
