Kenneth,

While it may prove nearly impossible to buy a can of signal red, there is
the possibility of having a specialized paint vendor mix a batch of signal
red according to the original formula, pre-mix it and pack it in an aerosol
can for you to use. There are drawbacks: 1- these cans have a lower air
pressure than what you find pre-packaged on the market. 2- if you have it
pre-mixed in acrylic Urethane or any paint system with a reactor
(catalyst), you have to use the stuff in about 6 days. Then it's a matter
of "blending" the repair with the original paintwork.
