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 i can see what you mean about the correct color hue and why you are going after it with some rigour.

if TJB/914's car is correct in this thread below. nice.
very changeable depending on light?

would make sense.
an old mate of mine had a 73 in what is called delphi green metallic in the states.
but the same color is called saturn yellow metallic in the rest of the world.
that was one beautiful enigmatic color.
sometimes it looked green.
at other times golden yellow.
just depended on the time of the day, angle of sun etc etc.

given the name = saturn yellow, surely it is meant to be similarly enigmatic even though not metallic?

i go after color a bit hard in my architecture.
i have been known to upset painters - until they get to the end of the job.
i use a 1930s color book and i get the colors custom mixed.
everyone else asks me where i get my colors from.
i stay schtum.
i got this color into my house 20 odd years ago.
its called chartreuse in my kept hidden book which actually only has about 30 colors.
the world was a lot simpler then, but the colors were fantastic.




depending on the light you could never really say it was green or yellow.

i used to look at ravenna green and think that was porsche or VW going after chartreuse, but now that you have alerted me to your discovery of a green tone, i think it might be saturn yellow.

all i can say is stay on the case. see if you can reconstruct it.
it will be worth it.
