Can find the official name or a code. Its the 2006 Gemballa GTR car. Garrett wants THIS color and I need to get it mixed and painted ASAP. Any help or suggestions as to where to find this or one REAL DARN CLOSE?
Thanks |
At a first glance, I thought this was a RUF. Then I saw the Gemballa details... This looks somewhat Guards Red to me.
Are you going non-metallic, non-pearl? Clearcoat? |
They list it as an orange..also saw where it was called a BLOOD ORANGE. If it looks like guards red then your monitor color is off a little I think. It is a REDDISH Orange though.

It might be easiest for you guys to visit car websites and see, if any mfg has a similar color listed for one of their cars. Or walk some dealer lots. Then you can just take that formula. Of course, any painter can custom mix a color for you - which he'd probably have to, if it's not available from a mainstream brand. But then you might have some risk when you need to repaint something down the road. |
I don't know ...but damm that is a nice color!:thumbup:

Here is Guards Red on the right.....
|
Dean, when you figure it out, write it down.
Unless your son objects ( and that's cool if he does), I have one up here in the mid-atlantic that's begging for that color sometime during 2011. Gonna need seats redone, too. |
The more I look at this color the more I think WOW! My S4 would look GREAT in this...but then this color would have to change so Thats out the window. :)
This is REALLY a nice color. I am impressed with his ability to "see" better than I. |

Dean,
Maybe this link will be helpful: http://www.type-14.com/paint.htm Code L21E = Blood Orange It looks like a match to me. |
Very nice color... Quite fetching!
|
Red- Good choice!
Maybe no need for a custom mix-
Go to your paint supplier and ask to see the tinting colors ( the ones they mix with) . Some of the Reds are stunning. If you find something you like, just use it . Also,there would be a better chance of it matching later if needed as the tints are made at the factory by the paint maker - no in the field mixing involved. PPG had a tinting red that the street rod guys used- bright! You car will be outstanding when done- good job. |

Are you going non-metallic, non-pearl? Clearcoat? Thoughts? A pearl would be nice too but that might be a little much for my first paint job....ever. |
