[Jackal]

Does anyone know the formula to achieve the cream/ivory/vintage white color on the JCF Rhoads V? Thank you for your time.

Thanks Sully... Sorry for being an dork, but, what's the HOK site [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]
Is it House of Kolor?
Because that dude is local to me. All I need is the mixing percentages (or a Pantone number?) & my Auto paint guys will match it.
By the way thanks for pulling my butt out the fire for, like, the thousandth time.

White paint + 20 years = vintage white [img]graemlins/poke.gif[/img]

Carvin has a nice vintage white (classic white). Maybe contact them and see what they use. Here's mine. http://carvin.electricshockmusic.com/toejamsc90_1.jpg

I emailed Kevin and apparently they use off the shelf House of Kolor paints. He says it's not cheap though. He bought a quart of blue teal flip-flop paint a couple of weeks ago and it was damn near $100. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

&gt; Try going to your local Cadillac dealer and tell them you want to order a touch up stick in White Diamond Metallic,that is pretty close to the color of my vintage ivory Model 5. If you get the touch up stick,any decent paint shop can mix to match it. Tommy D.
