Single Stage Paint-Pastel Green.....should this be difficult?!

[I Leak Oil]

Looks too blue to me also. Find an original, unfaded paint sample (like the inside of the door skin) and make them match it to that.

Well at least I am not mad! Jason....I thought the same thing as you!

It looks dark and blue to me. I think of pastel as alot lighter.

Sorry to here that he already moved ahead with the paint costs, but in the end what's a couple of hundred extra bucks. We all have probably blown that many times over, and in many instances. The bottom line is to be happy when it's all over with.

Nice landscape in the background.

Julian,

Not sure if this helps, but got it off of Roverhaul.com


DuPont
Pastel Green 38504A
Limestone 38505A

PPG Deltron
Pastel Green 46250
Limestone 46251

Glasurit
Pastel Green ROV605
Limestone ROV105/S

And SHOULD looks something like this...

Jason,

Yes, I was there, and that's what is on my truck-faded-and what I'm looking for! And the code 46250 is what was used

Casurveyor,

You're right, but I think the paint shop should make this right. May try the tinting route to approximate what Jason posted from Roverhaul.

That is the color that I was thinking of Mr. Albers.

KNAC - The color that you show on the stick test is nowhere near what it needs to be. Your log in doesn't happen to be from the old metal days does it?

Hopefully the painter / paint supplier can correct or make a new batch that meets your requirements. Based on the swatch in your picture, someone screwed up several numbers.

I wish you the best, and Mr. Albers color look great to me.

Yes, from 105.5 days....I used to live in Cali!!

Thanks.....going to take it to them to retint and give them a panel to check it to. It does not need to be dead on, but pretty close, and that paint is not close enough!!!
