Can you mix caliper paint? I was thinking about mixing a red and yellow caliper paint to get a color close to SOM. Will this work? If not what color should I paint them?

The only thing about you mixing colors is I bet the paint you have doesnt have metallic in it so it wont look quite the same plus I believe there's more then red and yellow in Sunset Orange. Its has a bit of a coppery tone to it also so that's why I say there's some other colors mixed in to achieve that color.
Someone on the LS1.com board has a Sunset Metallic WS6 and he had a local paint store mix him up some that was enamel I believe and will work just fine for the calipers.
The calipers would look really cool in Sunset Orange!! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]2000 Pewter Metallic Formula M6 <br /><br /><a href=\"http://flaminbird.smugmug.com\" target=\"_blank\">My 2000 Formula</a>
