Glasurit 22 Line?, Looking for experience or availability Options

[Van B]

Seems like this would be the best hope of replicating the nuance of my L13M Saturn yellow that was badly missed with its previous paint job. But, I can’t seem to find anyone who can source it or much less has experience with it.

Anyone out there in 914 World have experience, advice, or sourcing tips they care to pass along? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellow914.JPG)

I think you'll have better luck approximating your original color by finding some part of the car that hasn't been resprayed. Like inside a headlight cover, bottom of the hood or rear lid. Clean it, polish it and bring it to a paint store for a match. Not computer match but, by eye. Finding someone to do this can be a job in itself.
If you can find a local to you Glasurit supplier and they have or can get the current formula then get them to mix you a pint or 1/2 pt to make sure you like it. Yellows and red toners are some of the most expensive. Start puckering now!
The toners Glasurit had in the 70s have been regulated out of use several times over by now which is why I think you should have some mixed to look at the current color formulation.
I'm not at all surprised by the two very different reds for the same code. I think that 138 is called Cinnabar red. I remember it being very translucent and hard to match. Looks great though.....

Good memory. To make matters worse sometimes called Zinnoberrot in certain paint books. And yes, hard to match (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) good fun trying to find a match at $400/quart.
