Z1 green paint in a rattle can? was created by kzz1king
I would like to do my current project in the green/yellow scheme that my 74 was. It does not have to be an exact match,just close. Duplicolor makes factory touch up for autos. Anyone know and factory auto colors that come close? Thanks

Do you have a piece with original green on it?
If you do you might take it to a paint supplier and have them computer match the color to get you in the ball park B)

I might have under 3 other coats of paint! I just want to get similar. This is not a restore. I remember seeing that there is an auto paint that is close. I know someone sells the supposedly correct mix but it is pricey.

Im not thinking exact match,but maybe they can get you to modern vehicle color that you can get in the dupli color that way.
Im gonna guess ford or chyrsler colors would be your best bet B)

If you match those colors, would you let me know what they are?
My bike was missing the right side cover. Z1WIZ sold me a cover but it needs painted.
