hi ALL
I want to use a new beetle color on my bus
AQUARIUS BLUE LB5B
The paint store tells me they dont have the formula to mix this color in Acrylic only 2 pac.
Does anyone know how I can find a formula for acrylic? Thanks In anticipation . Mitchell

You will have to contact your paint suppliers of acrylic paint. Only each manufacturer has their formula for each colour. So if your paint store that sells X brand acrylic paint cant get the formula, then you have to try another store that sells another brand. Ring them all, and you will then know.

then colour match via acrylic?
