Rich, the paint was matched and mixed from the swatch's from mikes book, eggshell finish, Withams paints. The mystery area is around the drivers front wing, not clear on any pictures, I will paint the drivers headlight in the base colour (Portland Stone), If anyone has a downward shot of a Caunter carrier front it would be helpful, before applying the finished coat. The other two colours are Silver Grey and Slate.

Kevin.
