The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

SS doesn't give out their colors. i've asked. several times. no factory number, brand, mix data, pantone...nothing. they all say, 'the factory makes it.'

Yes the x-27 is the correct paint to use for the red. I would do so testing on it to see how it covers for you.

Course they're not going to tell everyone the exact colours used. The recasters would have a field day!

If someone were to take a Sideshow Iron Man to an automotive paint shop they could scan both colors and give you a code to work with. Actually I would that any specialty paint store with a scanner would be able to provide a code.
