Absolutely Matt !! I will make up a sample and send along the specs. Turns out that the paint (according to the manufacturer) crosses over to a very current Mazda/Ford color so it will be easy to mix up. A quick tip: If you tint the primer a bit it will take less final paint to cover. John |

 I had no problem getting Mimosa mixed up:  Even when I really wanted Neona  And even that wasn't a problem either.  So please do excuse me for being baffled with all this fannying around trying to get paint. |

LOL RichardIt's one thing to live in a place where most people have heard of a DAF...but when you live in the USofA and you ask for color for a DAF they look at you as if you had three heads  It took me two weeks to match up Mimosa here after finally finding someone willing to take an extra step and scan/photograph the original paint.  Time to drool a little Matt......LOL John
