There was very little “poly”/”metallic” in 1964 Paint Code T (Roman Red Metallic). My CA painter shot a sample and came up with an existing new formula (from a Mercedes, I believe). The scanner does not measure aluminum powder or size. It just compares color to each color in its library of current formulae. I had him cut the aluminum powder way back but it was still too much. Looks good though and I recall that the INT Concours judges only compare the current color to the original club samples. Having the reference sample plate “shot” by a shop near where they are kept always seemed like a good idea. Other states may still allow older formulations. Not CA. Car paint here is very expensive. Iridescence/glitter might be frowned upon if the powder can is tipped too far or large flakes are added. More than fair. Discuss it with your painter and come up with the amount of bling-bling you want in your R-code.

If so, I would greatly appreciate your sending me what you have. Thanks.
