I'd just caution folks that some of us, myself included, have seen "modern paint formulas" from some paint blenders that aren't particularly faithful to the originals as found in dealer showroom books that have been well-preserved and kept out of damaging daylight. So, I'd always recommend getting a minimum amount first just to verify the match. Posted on: 2011/8/11 10:50
