    Does anyone have any paint formulas for factory bike colors?
    It doesn't matter if it's a Sherwin-Williams, PPG, DuPont, Sikkens or any
    other paint company formula. I've noticed this data isn't readily available,
    so my plan is to try to dig up any formulas I can get my hands on and
    compile a database. So, if you've:
    repainted your bike the original color and bought the paint at your local
    automotive paint store
    or
    if someone else painted it for you and mixed the paint
    or
    if you paint bikes and mix your own paint from an automotive paint system
    or
    if you have a source for paint formulas for OEM bike colors

    Let me know, I'll add it to my database and post the link to it here.

    Thanks!

    They're what I'm trying to avoid - pre-mixed paint. I'm looking for the
    formulas for mixing your own OEM colors from a mixing system (such as
    Sherwin-Williams, PPG, DuPont, etc.). ... but thanks, that site does have
    some good info on factory paint codes.
