PPG Paints?
 
Anyone know where to get PPG custom colors in less than 1 quart sizes? I know it wont take a quart of each color for my A-4 and I dont want to buy whole quarts if I dont need too, way too expensive.

Check with a local bodyshop, see if they'll mix what you need. You may have better luck going that route, most paint suppliers tell you to buy a full pint.

You may get lucky checking your local paint suppliers returns...it's worth the look.

I am looking for the colors of this guy here:

I can wait till after the holidays to get it though. Yes Eddie, I am going to spray it myself. George, do you have a business for paints? I would need enough for the 4 primary colors and then only like 4-8 ounces for the rudder and stars. Then some red and black. I am also looking for the FLAT clear (Flex n Flat)

yes you can say that, my body shop features PPG so I stock all the materials needed.
paint codes would be nice, or we can mix from a paint chip, the amounts you need are no problem...

Hey G, if you don't mind a carpet bagger, I might be interested in buying small quantities too ;) I look forward to the painting of a project more than anything else, I have one that should be ready to paint in a couple months.

Ian, good on you - besides building, painting skills are evaporating faster than thinner these days. Aside from that, the IAF scheme is a particularly good one on the Scooter.

bring it down here Ian and I will help you paint it [8D]
also I can get any amount of paint mixed as well. I never
get alot, usually the minimum is 4 ozs. of course you still
need the paint chips/colors for that scheme
