And then there is what your printer would do to the colors to print out and
take to paint shop.

There are large variances in the various color ships also. I used a factory
color and upholstery book for my 55s and they have large sheets of color
samples. He then had to choose where on the sheet to copy the color since
it varied all over!!!!

Ditzler using original formulas would be great but they don't have the
original paints to use either!!
