Many moons ago - like in the 1992 time frame, I built some toys (pine), and used a line of Valspar latex enamal paints on them. I have a need to try to color match (if at all possible) some new toys.
I've called Valspar tech support - they did some searches on their archives. Basicly all they have found is some images of the original can labels - but no formulas, etc. Worse, any of the current production enamals they have will be in quarts for the smallest container size. The stuff I bought back then was 1/2 pts....assuming I could get a scan and a custom mix, etc it would be way more paint and expense....So likely I am out of luck w/ Valspar.
Any one have any suggestions for alternatives?
Many thanks
Jim
