My painter uses ppg paint and cannot get a paint mix formula for Nepal orange.
Can anyone here help with a formula? Thanks |

Bill, I have the same color and I found a place in Dallas that could provide it.
I can't find the details so I'll stop by the next time I'm in that area and get it again. |

A lot of times the 914 codes have to be looked up as a VW. I also have better luck getting 914 colors in Shopline. For some reason they tend to have direct formulas in Shopline but not in Deltron, despite both being PPG paints (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Thanks everyone. That helped. Found it I think. Here's what I picked up. Original color is Signal Orange but I wanted a slightly different orange and not as dark as Tangerine. We're painting the 2 hoods to see how it looks. U if you notice all the orange cars here are washed out color when viewed online.
