Help with mixing paint pls

I am about to have a little bit of paint done on the Barracuda but I need to find some paint formulas for FY1 lemon twist to try and help my painter who is under a bit of pressure at moment and if I want to get the job done this side of summer I have got to try and help out a little. I know the paint he uses is Lechler does anybody out there have the code for this so that I can get the paint mixed, because I have not got a clue

Guy i use to use Lechler a long time ago on cheap repaint's.
I would not use it on my pride and joy but that's just my opinion.
Have you got a DUPONT supplier in your area?
If so they will have a brick that will give you a perfect match.

Ashley's right Guy. Lechler is OK for a cheapie, but I would go for one of the big brands.

Not only is the material technically superior, the colour service is ten times better, I can get you accurate formulae for R-M or Glasurit, but as Ashley said, DuPont could do it too.

Thanks for that chaps

will start to chase that up on Tuesday when I finish work.I am only after one litre
Thinking about it i believe there was a dupont code listed in one of my restoration books I have in the attic some where, so maybe just got to find a local supplier.

I know I'm no expert but clicking about I came across this which may be of use.
