Close to Rio Red?

Post by IronMonkeyL255 »

Anyone know of any readily-available paints (preferably Duplicolor) that are close to Rio Red in color. I know I could find an exact match at a paint shop or from paintscratch.com, but that'd be a bit too expensive, and too much of a hassle.

I just wanted to paint my fender so it wouldn't look so out of place until I get the whole car re-sprayed.

Also, I wanted to get one of Duplicolor's scratch-fix pens to cover up some of the dings, and a scratch on my trunk lid.

I believe it's 946 or 947. I think 947 is Sedona Red, though.

I checked through duplicolor's site and catalog, and they don't have the exact color. Anyway, my car is faded from 15 years of sun, so it wouldn't be fully rio red anyway.....
