I usually have colors matched and mixed to the decals or plates that I am going to use.

Thanks Dave. I sometimes cant be sure if the decal is the true colour or off a bit so I am a little leary of that but I will try. Thanks again,Tim

Tim, all the more reason to color match to what you are going to use...

Imagine that the decal you are using, is "slightly off" in color... That slight color variation, will not show up as much by color matching to the decal; As it might, if you had a "correct color" and then placed the decal against it...

I followed the advise given of those with experience on this sight. When I had my pump painted I had the paint computer matched to the 1955 original pump plate and it came out perfect. Listen to them . They know . I did . smile
