ATCO paint

Hey All. Can anyone recommend a paint shade that comes close to the original ATCO colour. The mid brunswick I usually use isn't really on the money...

Many thanks,

Craig

Just a thought are you able to scratch off a flake of the original paint and match it to a can in the shops?

Many thanks DJ for your prompt and helpful reply (as always). I bought a can of deep brunswick green today and tried it out against the mid I normally use. Probably not an exact match....but it looks REALLY good. Will definately go nicely with those shiny gold decals I've got on order....

Cheers to more beers!

Hi Craig, Yeah mate, I agree, Deep Brunswick is a great colour for use on mowers, I also used it on a Scott Bonnar Model 17 (Petrol) that I had years ago, and it came up a treat!

Can't wait to see your pics when it's completed....
