[NSRCA-discussion] Monokote Color Codes for PPG DCC paint

[ahrensw at charter.net]

Guys,
Thanks very much for everybody's suggestions. At lunch I went by local paint shop and purchased my paint.  With some paint colors we used color codes published by a web site and they seem to match.  Some we scanned the monokote and they seem to matched just as well.  It will be interesting to see how good once painted on a plane. 
Also thanks for some humorous responses,  Bob :)
