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) |

Yeah L13M. The eye notices green better than any other color. Since it is right in the middle of our visual spectrum we can actually see more shades of green. You can't fly in the AF unless you can see all the greens lol.
So, what I like about the authentic Saturn yellow is that under a UV biased light, the yellow washes out and the green comes through. But under a more infrared bias, the yellow becomes golden. That's exactly what's happening in your pics. |

That's exactly what's happening in your pics. i rang max who owns the workshop and he reckons that dennis will call him back tonight. fully briefed now on degree of difficulty. paint name and color code passed on. spectral borderline flip flop general theme fully processed and understood by max. he got it. exactly what the issue is. also information that its a VW color code. lets see what old dennis has to say. |
