I want to paint my COE Single Stage Urethane Seacrest green.
Went to my local PPG dealer and they say they can't do it in their Omni Plus. I was quoted over $800 a gallon for TCP Global. I call B.S. on that.
Has anyone have any MODERN Vendor paint codes for Seacrest Green?
I thought what I had would have made it easy for them. See attached.

Marty - Go check out Jim Carters site . He has the Seacrest Green, just not in urethane....

I've used his acrylic enamel paint with no issues. Single stage and you'll love the price.

Thanks, I was aware of Jim Carter's site and the fact he sells it in Acrylic Enamel.
I just got back from my Local NAPA store, who also sells Martin Senour Paint (by Sherwin Williams I found out) and they were able to pull up the Martin Senour 286 paint code from that sheet. For them it comes up as "dark green". So, he mixed up a small sample and it looked very much like Seacrest Green to me. So I ordered a gallon. The Martin Senour formula for single stage urethan is attached for anyone else that might want to use it. Ask they mix a sample batch for you so you can see it. At least my store would.

PPG has a acrolic enamel product called alk200 which I believe is what Jim Carter uses. if you have a sample color of the paint they can probably match the color for you.
