Spent all of Tuesday in the box on poles being shaken (11 approaches - ugh), but got a little time between sessions to knock out the Wednesday edition ;^). Hope you enjoy.

RE: Paint color match - AKZO AHS-1619 Matterhorn White
…Larco reply
Someone on this forum said this "Chrysler Bright White part number ACC0362 is a perfect match to my Matterhorn White". I have since tried the match and it seems as a perfect match so I went to an automotive paint store and had them make up a spray can of this paint. Works great and BTW some of the paint stores can match odd colors as well and put it in spray cans, good for touch up by spraying a small amount into a cup and using a brush for little stuff. Some paint stores are better at this than others so you might ask around?
