Re: Dupont paint code for Laurel Green

["Livia Haasper" <wilivhaasper@sympatico.ca>]

If Dupont does not have the code for the original paint then Dupont will not
be able to match it. However, using the photographic gizmo [don't know the
proper name]
most company can scan the original paint if available and make their own code.
You need a sample piece.

  Subject: Dupont paint code for Laurel Green


  I am in the process of getting my 74 spitfire painted (after 9 months of
  painstaking work). I have done some research on  various web pages
available
  including:
  http://www.teglerizer.com/triumphcolors/

  .... great site by the way.

  I have my heart set on painting the car Laurel Green (Triumph Paint Code
55),
  I know what the PPG and ICI paint codes are too (thanks to the above site).
  However, I can save myself about $ 250.00 Canadian if I can find the Dupont
  paint code (local store here can't cross reference the dupont code using
the
  codes from PPG or ICI).

  Any help or a point in the right direction would be appreciated.

  Thanks,

  Jim
