Colorado Red - is there a close approximation in rattle can?

[SteveHall64Healey]

Gents, I need to paint my wheel wells this winter. The car is Colorado red, and I do not require an exact match as the two colors will be be close together but won't overlap.

I am looking for something off the shelf, from a widely-sold manufacturer like Duplicate-Color or similar. Has anyone experimented with this or know of a close match? Not looking for perfection.

Thanks
Steve

We have a local auto paint store near us. They can mix any color in a spray can. Do you have someone near you?

Hi Steve-
You might look at Chevrolet Victory red or Ford Race red in the dupli color line. If you have a farm store near you can look at Massey Ferguson red. Van Sickle is a good manufacturer of this. tough paint, but takes forever to dry. one of those should get you really close.

Tower paint ( now apstowerpaint.com ) will set you up with what you want. Excellent inventory of factory colors.

I did try a nearby auto paint supplier (Car Quest) and they were able to supply it. Thanks for the suggestion. They were able to match on the ICI number for Colorado Red - which the have as 'MG Colorado Red RD.2'
