I have a jelly mold tank that was primed when I got it. Anybody have the paint code to match the burdangy/red color of the tank?

thanks

I was hoping someone would come up with a code for you, but it doesn't look promising, so I'll describe what I do.
If you don't have Adobe Photoshop my method will be worthless, but here it it:
Import a photo that has a color you like.
Use the eydropper tool to sample an area you like, then fill a box with that color and erase a hole in the box.
Repeat sampling in several interesting spots- slide the boxes over the photo to check.




Click on the best match you find to get the hex color code.
Go to this website and enter the hex code- my code was cc3333

And, you'll get a page with lots of color info, including paint codes from Dupont, PPG, Ford, Chrysler, even Marth Stewart.

With some genuine paint codes I can get sample chips to get closer to the color I want.
At my local paint store the guy doesn't even look up when you come in- when he hears the bell from the door he says "year, make and model", and if you don't give him that, or a code, all is lost- if I said I was looking for 'sort of a redish burgundy kinda color' he'd go out back and smoke until I left.
I'm looking for Kingfisher Blue, if anyone has it.

When I was searching for what colors the widecase mk3's came in I found that. I also found a company in the UK that supplied Lechler paint, and sold samples. I do not remember who they were now.

You might want to ask if your local auto paint store can get a match for Lechler paint codes
