Well, the time has come, and the paint shop needs a paint code.. I've spent hours trying to find a dupont paint code for adriatic blue, or something very close. The closest I've come to finding adriatic was Dupont 2505, which is ford grabber blue... which is too light I think for adriatic:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/paintref.com-9714-1378939766.1.jpg) Anyone who has painted their car Adriatic blue using dupont..Help! I've tried my best, and the paint shop's chip book isn't the best in the world.. Thanks in advance, Ethan |

Make sure you look at the actual paint, or even better - a spray out card. A code isn't worth anything. Actually seeing the color in person is what you need. I've talked to people who put all their faith in a code not realizing how much the same 'code' can change depending on what paint system it's mixed in.
