We needed to come up with a suitable paint to do touch up on the 68-a. After much teeth gnashing and hand wringing we developed the following plan. Using Rustoleum brand paint, gloss black was mixed with gloss sunrise red until the matching hue was produced. Seal Brown is a very deep and dark brown. Our color match was perfect, allowing us to repair some chips. We also were able to repaint the W/S frame to match the rest of the upper body color. Hope someone else can use this plan to obtain the same satisfactory results we got.
