[Tigers] Tiger colors

[thomas rankin]

Anyone

Trying to find exact information on Tiger colors. What I'm looking for
are specific colors used in specific spots. What black is used on upper
and lower control arms.  Is it flat black semi gloss black or gloss black?
Same with front cross member drive shaft rear end. In certain pictures
I've seen the rear pumpkin and orange red is that original? How about
undercoating is it only in the wheel wells  or is the entire floor covered.
These are the color questions I need answered. Why has no one come
come up with standard that all Tigers are judge by to see who truly has
the best ones. Corvettes have Top Flight where the judges can even tell
you where factory quality checks marks are supposed to be. Where is the
consistency in the Tiger judging?

  All,
  My automotive paint supplier, Senik Paint in Orange County, has the optical
  equipment for color matching but their greatest asset is Inez, one of his
  employees.  He has color matched several of my cars spot-on... this includes
  solids, metalics, single stage, two stage, etc.  He'll prepare the paint for
  a one-time batch or create a formula to go with it so the color will be
  repeatable to prepare.

  My best advice is to find a person who is great at color matching and go
  from there.  Alternartely, if one doesn't have the desired color to begin
  with, get the desired color through whatever means (a friends car, color
  library, whatever) and have a formula made so you'll be able to repeat the
  color, if wanted.
  I'm sold,
  Darrell

  I also tried the scanner method for the green and it came out yellow
  green fortunately we were only doing the engine compartment so it wasn't
  a big deal. I agree with the eyeball method, mine turned out great.
