Well, this has been interesting. My PPG guy called the archives and got a formula for Cape Maroon, and he had them shoot the pecan brown and wicker brown colors with the gun to get a formula. One small glitch. I have to order DBC to formulate them. Ouch. It's only 305.00 per gallon for the base, and 235.00 for the clear. No reducers in that price folks. Ouch. So, since i've had great experience with the Sherwin Williams products, I can order a gallon of the 7000 for about half that price and the dimension is around 1/3 that cost, so I ordered half pints from the PPG guy, i'll shoot those panels and have the Sherwin Williams guy shoot that with his gun and i'll spray some test panels to see how close it is. I've had good results with the gun matching and have painted some blow in's and full motorcycles very successfully. I am not worried too much if it's off a fraction because I am painting the entire vehicle. I am hoping somebody will give me a formula, and if they do, I'm posting it for the paint for Base / clear applications for anybody who wants it.
