It is metalic but it has a very fine flake.

The correct dupont mix has very fine metalic. Most other brands will be the correct shade but the metalic will be way to large . Bill

Are you talking lacquer here? The original Dupont code for 916 Daytona Blue was 4395-2.

I have been trying to track down "reliable" current Dupont offset numbers for BC/CC or acrylic enamel for Daytona Blue.

So far I have been given:

Nason Ful-Base Base Coat #43951F and
7779 Dupont Chromabase Clear

as the best option.

Are these correct? I am looking for the best non lacquer solution. Any recommendations?

Thx.

Any dupont jobber should be able to mix the correct color in chroma base or chroma premere. nason is a cheaper paint from dupont . I have never used it so I cant help you there. No matter what you use the clear will make it look deeper , darker & inhance the metallic. Always have a pint or less mixed for a test panel before spending the big bucks.....Bill
