Rick, thanks for the comments on the powder coat system.

I know that colors are hard to explain on the internet but could you comment on
the following.  Using Moss' color as a base; is the Eastwood color more brown or
more red?  I wouldn't know if their color really fits either of these categories
but I the more brown/more red issue is generally the typical color shift you see
with maroon paint.

Thanks for any help.
