Also Classic sells 2oz bottles ($10.99), markers or kits. Weren't the daubs done with the body color paints anyway? I don't think the brown on torsion bars was any body color. I at least hope not.

You can buy samples for matching colors... I think I paid around 10 or so for a couple ounce samples when trying to match a color last year.

Inspection marks were not body paint. You can go to an art store like Hobby Lobby they have 100s of colors in small size containers.

I thought MMC says some of the inspection daubs are very close to body colors. Isn't that a good place to start if you are just eyeing little bottles of paints at Hobby Lobby? Like there is a Testors Sassy Grass that would match the bright green. Otherwise, if you're not buying a kit from Frank Badalson for your plant location, everyone doing their 90-point restoration inspection marks will all have different hues.

Thanks for the help guys. I'll checkout Hobby Lobby and see what they have for paint colors. Or I'll call Classic Industries. I see they sell 2 oz bottles of inspection mark paints in the catalog. You guys are awesome. Most of the paint at Hobby Lobby is water based and is not going to work.

I guess I'll just skip Hobby Lobby then and order paint from Classic Industries.
