Default Paint Scans

Hope it will get you close, but if not, see if anyone in your area has a camera that they use to scan the colour that you want to match. Out here, Lordco does it at the body shop that painted my wheels and mixed a sample for my approval. Once we decided it was close enough, the body shop used the codes that Lordco provided to make up enough to do 6 wheels and lock rings. It's gloss but looks way better than the mess they were in before the sandblast and repaint. This is all new territory for me, as body and paint are not my forte'. New paints and processes require some study on my part, but thanks to the contributors on this forum and a few others that I haunt the learning is underway. Now if I just had more time and a few less projects...
