Paint Supplier?, Looking for correct single stage paint Options

[rstover]

I am ready for new paint on the Bumblebee that I have been working on. The paint shop that I am working with is trying to get the sunflower yellow that is correct. He says that the formulas change over time and that by just ordering off of the paint code may or may not be correct. The yellow is L13K and the black is L 041. I don't know what yellow is on the car now, but I am pretty sure it is not correct. Jeff believes that a yellow negative script was made by Porsche at some time. I have the folder with the intuctions for the one on the car now. I believe that the yellow on my car was painted to match that script. We have no sample to match the L13K to.

I would really appreciate some expert advise on a supplier that has the best single stage that is period corredt for L041 and L13K.

I want to thank all who responded my question about paint. I forwarded these to the painter and he quickly reponded with his recomendation. He must have mistaken me for someone who knew something about painting Porsche and was trying do as I wished. When I first talked to him he mentioned he used a lot of Axalta which I didn"t reconize as being Dupont. Today he recomended using Axalta. He is going to use the formula for the Black (L041) and getting the yellow(L13K) and tinting it to match the negative stripe from 914 rubber. At first he said it would be about 2 months before starting, but he is going to go ahead and paint the cowl so that I can put in the new dash, dash pad and windshield.

All the comments help in deciding. I didn't know that there were grades of paint within the brand. He gave me the retail price for the L041 top of line and quickly mentioned he could get the whoesale price. He was propably afraid that he was going to see an old man faint. The L041 is $199 quart and activater about $ 269. The yellow is only like $ 69 per quart. I am really excided about getting nice paint on the car and will have Paint questions about painting in the jams with stickers and ID plate.

I don't think he painted the whole car, but I know he did the shodows. I enjoyed it and thought some others might.
