Just about ready to paint the engine bay, the rest of the car is red, but i would like to change the colour sometime in the future, so im thinking i will paint the engine bay orange, does anyone have a paint code for an orange that is somewhere near hemi orange ?

Thanks in advance Darran

Hemi orange is one of the easiest colours to make, if you have the right base colours!

Here's the formula for Glasurit 90 Line. This is a waterbased basecoat and clear, and contrary to what you may think, it's a metallic!

Take this to your Glasurit distributor and they'll know what to do.

Formula
Target ltr kg

Base Amount Cumulative
M4 1585.4 1585.4 g
A031 2258.9 3844.4 g
A926 17.4 3861.7 g

Is there a difference in the Aussie colours? I have the Berger paints number list (that appears on the compliance tag of your car) if that is any help?

Steve Harrison (RT Auto on here) painted his Aus Charger Hemi Orange, maybe PM him as well to find what he did.
