Morini red paint - a suggested color match
Posted: 10 Dec 2016 22:45
Hi
I am about to paint the fenders and body work on my 1981 500.
In order to match the paint I took a side panel down to my local parts supplier who used a camera to scan the color and suggest a match. The color mix they came up with is shown below and when checked against the panel and frame appears to be extremely close.
Paint manufacturer is Shop-Line JTX. I know color matching is very subjective, but if you want to come up with a Morini red this cocktail might be a very good starting point.
I also measured and photographed the location of all the pin stripes.
I have a number of different photo's like this one showing the exact location and dimensions of the striping. If anyone would find these photos useful please feel free to sent me a PM.
Cheers
Andy
