Anyone remember which thread had the paint formulas listed from Eric the Plug Guy. I have done a search and can't find it. I think Stan had posted the formulas courtesy of Eric.

TIA

let me check my wallet...ah, here it is


PORSCHE
L92U
ARKTISSILBER-MET.

BRILLANTSILBER EXTRA (bright silver) 51%
MICROSILBER EXTRA (silver) 42%
SPEZIALSCHWARZ (special black) 3%
LASURSCHWARZ (black) 1.5%
MICROWEISS (white) 1%
WEISS (white) < 1%
LASURBRILLANTROT (brilliant red) < 1%
BRILLANTBLAU (brilliant blue) < 1%

===================

PORSCHE
LM7Z
GT-SILBER-MET.

PERLWEISS (white pearl) 36%
BRILLANTSILBER EXTRA (silver) 44%
SPEZIALSCHWARZ (special black) 7%
PERLFEINWEISS (white pearl) 10%
PERLRUBIN (ruby pearl) 2%
DUNKELBLAU (dark blue) 1%

The above percentages are approximate.

Atlas has at least three blues in it. I'm sure someone here can translate.

Here is the mix:
SCHWARZ (black)
LASURTIEFBLAU (blue)
BRILLANTSILBER FEIN (silver)
LASURBRILLANTROT (red)
PERLFEINBLAU (blue)
BLAULASUR
LASURDUNKELBLAU (blue)
PERLFEINWEISS (white)


Seal Grey Metallic

SCHWARZ (Black)
BRILLANTSILBER (Silver)
FEIN PERLLILA (Purple)
FEINSILBER (Silver)
PERLFEINBLAU (Blue)
WEISS (White)
LASURTIEFBLAU (Blue)
TIEFBLAU (Blue)

This is why Seal will work with Blue interior sometimes, though best in Black.


Slate Grey Metallic

SPEZIALSCHWARZ (Black)
MICROSILBER EXTRA (Silver)
BRILLANTSILBER EXTRA (Silver)
PERLROT (Metallic Red)
LASURAZURBLAU (Blue)
PERLROSA (Metallic Pink)
DUNKELROT (Dark Red)
LASURGRUEN (Green)

Ever seen Slate with Nephrite Green? It works, and this is why. Notice the reds? That's why Terracota works well with Slate too.

Thanks Stan.

Do you know what company makes this paint? Following this post I visited Sikkens, and it seems they follow "another" paint mix ie. they operate with different names of the individual components ("brilliantsilber extra" etc). I inquired about L92U only. It starts to dawn on my why they can't get paint to match...! Any help leading to the right source is appreciated!

Kolbjorn....if you can't get Sikkens, are you looking for a supplier for paint, or a shop to do some work on your Porsche?

Sikkens can be easily mixed to match 92U perfectly, and is very high quality paint. Email me with questions: eric@bumperplugs.com
