Did you ever get the color? I can mix it in single stage DCC, or base clear DBC if needed.

FYI Envirobase is waterbourne 

DBC is a Urathane base coate 

DCC is a Urathane Singe stage

PPG also has other lower line products

Find out what paint systems they can mix for you and let us know

Thanks towjoe, I tried the numbers you provided a few weeks ago. The problem is there is no mixture code that is currently available at least over here in the San Fernando, CA. It shows it as tweed gray but that's it. That goes for a lot of the colors on the list.

 

Thanks

George

I'm looking for a non water based paint, but if you have PPG than i can ask the paint shop to match it to the water base.

Thanks
