Technical Hard to find flathead mercury green paint

Trying to find vht sp131 paint .only can find 6 packs and most are out of stock.any alternative brands that are close?I've heard ***mins green is close....

 

Brian, why don’t you try your local automotive paint supply store? The one in my town will mix you any color and put it into spray cans. The price is only a little more than a regular can of spray paint.

Por15 has some vintage paint colors that might be worth a look at too.

 

Have you checked with Bill Hirsch in NJ?

 

Forgot about that ,may be an option

 

Would like spray cans not quarts

 

Is the dupli-color spray cans # DE1617 the same or am I off?

 

I'm going to go to the Home Depot and Lowe's today and check on that DupliColor one as few places have that and see if I like it or not.

 

Went to Home Depot today and found one made by Behr that's called Tropics gloss. Looks really close but maybe a bit too turquoise.

 

Detroit diesel green

 

Detroit Diesel that's the one, some reason I had it in my head that it was ***mins

 

That's the first thing I thought of also.

 

Detroit diesel green coming in Wednesday I think it'll work.got 4 heads checked out and 3 are good,hooray!

 

One more vote for Detroit diesel green. Its what I used on mine, I think it looks pretty close but all I've ever had is internet pics to compare it to

 

got the engine resealed and the rear sump pan and pick up on. Got one Mercury head and 8ba head. Paint should be here by 11:00.

 

Detroit Diesel alpine green for the win! Got everything all ****oned up and painted. Hopefully it runs half as good as it looks haha
