How I would approach something like this is to find a PPG jobber store. Have them call the PPG library and obtain the formula for their DBU line. If you do not wish to go that way, find a paint jobber that has a spectrophotometer where they can scan the chip in the Model-A Ford Paint & Refinish guide and mix from there.
If anyone knows it’s Brent! Follow his advice and send us a photograph of the finished product ! Wayne
