Paint code?? (sparkly red)

[aerologic]

Now that my bike had a free (not stuck) port valve and I have the cables adjusted fairly well, it is now time to get it painted. I have the sparkly red. Does anybody have a brand and paint code that is pretty close?

Thanks!

The paint was a silver metallic base coat with a translucent red/orange sprayed over the top.

Sam has the formula.

You can place several Firemist bikes side by side and have several different shades of red/orange.

If there is any firemist left mon the side panels, your painter should be able to match it. They have these nifty laser scanners now that do wonders

So down the road, when some idiot says" that's not original"... well... there is no ONE color.

Suzuki's QC was lacking in '75

Best,

Jess

The paint guy is sending a paint sample to BASF in Cleveland I think he said. He said the hand held scanners weren't good enough.
