Paint Repairs

There was a big chip of paint coming off the leading edge so I decided to patch it.  Matching the color was the most interesting part.  I had to go up to Howell with a sample chip where they have a machine that can match the color.  Here's the detail.

PPG Concept Acrylic Urethane   DCC 48129 H Green (no kidding).  I also found a cross reference to a DuPont code, 5081 ("Big Bad Green").
