Dont resize in photo bucket.  Let the forum size it for you.

I'll work on the pics when I get home tonight...

Thanks for the paint compliment...it's Dupont Chromabase...
The orig code was 72 red...when I sampled it in the Dupont it looked "purply" - not good...
sooo...we did a chromagraph dealywhopper on a buffed out spot and it's alot redder ( 24 years of fading...)...I get alot of oohs and ahhhs on the paint mix...
