Stop in for a cup of coffee
Where's Hoppy this morning? He and I were gettin' into the hammered paint pretty good til late last nite so maybe he's not up yet. I found some info on the blue paint for his Sun 820 engine tester. This thread says the hammered blue for the Sun 820 “is no longer available, BUT there is a suitable substitute that is almost a match with the OEM product - Sherwin-Williams Dimenso Dark Blue Enamel and its product code is 522-2302. Although it says Dark Blue, it is the actual blue shade of the 1960's vintage machines. This is hammered paint, so there is no additive to give it that hammered look. Just follow the spec sheet with regard to mixing and thinning…”. Ha - Doctor Dimenso. I found this link to the technical info on it, with a picture. Sherwin-Williams - Dimenso One-Coat Enamel. I haven’t found it online but I found this Hammerite dark blue - Hammerite Rust Cap 43125 1 Qt Dark Blue Hammered Finish Rust Cap Enamel Paint | Overstock.com Shopping - The Best Deals on Decorative Paint. I'd also told Ray it looked a lot like '64 Chevelle Laguna Blue but I found that color today and it's actually called Lagoon Aqua. Pretty close to the same color though - not quite but pretty close.
