Finally got the paint on. I don't know how durable it will be but Sherwin Williams paint matching is right on. They used the original paint codes for Cayuga blue and it matched the original paint perfectly. Sorry its crooked, you may have to tilt your head for viewing pleasure.

I may be a little biased but Cayuga Blue is a great color. You'll have to update your profile photo now!

Looks good. I love the smell of a fresh paint job in the morning.

That turned out great. Nice work.
Sherwin Williams also makes the NAPA automotive paint.
Did you use acrylic enamel with hardener or just straight enamel or what?
Love that color.

The paint is a urethane enamel with hardener ,it's a single stage paint . It actually covered really well ,I got a gallon and a quart and have about a half a quart left. We put four coats on it. We used Sherwin Williams Finish 1 sandable primer and sealer and Evercoat rage body filler.

Thanks. That urethane with hardener will buff out to a shine you won't believe.

I thought Martin Senior made NAPA paint or is Martin Senior owned by Sherwin Williams?
