My guru in New Hampshire slaved over the formula, sent more than a few
samples to look at. We (He - I agreed) settled on a custom mix from Nason (I
can send you the formula; it's a bit long...). The interesting part came
when I was painting small attached parts. Norm had suggested "Guards Red" a
Porsche / VW color. The local hobby shop carries it for models. The color is
so close as to be almost indistinguishable from #39.
The problem is - as always - how much orange (actually yellow...) makes a
knockout red. See attached.
So if I was going to start somewhere I might try Hobbytown and shoot up a
sample over your choice of primer. See if that's close. Your local PPG guy
will carry their version of the real thing.
