Good old code 32 now translates to a 2005 chevy color FYI.Its nice to work with since the formula is so simple,there is no question of mismatching. Modern base/clearcoats have a lot of advantages too.
Never go to a dupont store for code 32,they have an error in their data base and will supply you with code 82(damask)

I am looking to paint my Triumph Signal Red, don't necessarily trust paint shop to get old code right with new paint, also looking at Auto Color Library, anybody dealt with them, reasonable prices on paint.

Anyway, the big question--name--code for 2005 Chevy color? Are you absolutely sure it is a match for Signal Red?

Thanks Greg
 
I think the paint on the Roadster on the first page of this thread is the color they are referring to -- that post says it is called 'Victory Red' on 'Vettes.

I thought B&W checks would be 'Victory' and Red meant 'pull into the pits' but what do I know?

This is what I gave the paint guy and I was very satisfied with the result:

Signal Red
Color Code 32
PPG/Ditzler Code 70966
ICI code 2829
Acme/Sherwin Williams Code 2989
