Paint pen color match

Rosso Fuoco mentioned on old site Translation is "Fire Red."

If all else fails, head over to the Texas Section and ask if any of the guys are in touch with George LaFleur (308geo) - he may be able to give you the info. I have no idea what his username is since Nov. 1 - when the software changed, though he did post his (perhaps old, perhaps not) email address.

 

Steve, your paint code is under the rear bonnet.
My 77 was painted Rosso Chiaro
But the paint code you listed looks like the same wrong number that was passed on from that old Bluemel book, that someone forwarded to paintscratch.com...

As far as this paintscratch.com crap don't do it!
They mix from paint codes, not what color you car is after 27 years of fading.
I have seen a couple of these cars that the owners thought looked great after using this product, which I could see a difference in color right away.
After looking at the cars under florescent light, their reply was,
Damn, how could I not notice that.

Go to your local pro paint shop, and have them do a multi-angle reading from your car, and they can computer match the color that is on your car today exactly.
Then have them mix as much as you need, a little for touch up, or maybe a little more to re-paint the front spoiler.

Good Luck!

 

Give any (Tech) thread some time to "develop" during Holy Days - some individuals who observe Passover may not have frequented the site much, if at all, this past week & there's still a few days to go. That, coupled with people being off (early) on Good Friday and/or travelling means traffic dropped considerably on Friday, while the rest of the weekdays were @ the same as preceding week. Weekends are always quieter.

Give the # a call, see if they can fax you the info.
