does PBTP have a color like this ??

[Guest]

hi everybody, i have a customer that has a yamaha midnight special. it's one of the black and gold models. i have his sissy bar and gas cap here to PC in a gold to match the rest of his bike. going through all of my color cards, the closest match i have is a NIC anodized gold, ppb-2262. i am hoping that PBTP has a color close to this. i have a color sample from PBTP that is the transparent gold, and it is to bright of a gold. i am hoping that someone on the forum is familiar with the two colors i have mentioned and can lead me to a PBTP color that is closer than what i have found so far. any help is appreciated.
thanks
ron

Question since the PBTP gold is a trans can you put a dark color behind it to darken it up?

thanks for the replies !! first it is not a metalic. i think that trying to darken the gold, still would not give the color that i need. going through my color samples, PBTP has a sun gold that is close to the color i need but it does not have the sharpness, brightness that is needed. i was kind of hoping that someone would have the same color samples that i have to get a better idea of what i am needing. if i go through NIC i will have to buy way more powder than what is needed. i have experienced that buying 2 pounds from them will get a color that is not even close to what the color sample is, so i am trying to avoid that.

you got it. thanks for putting up the pics. i didn't think about it. yes it is the color on the gas tank trim, gas cap, sissy bar, and side covers on the second pic. it is a cheesy aluminum foil looking gold. it's like an anodized gold. to me the anodized colors are a fuller color, as you do not see as much of the substrate, as with the transparent / translucents. do you think i can put together any of PBTP's colors to come close to matching that. the bike the guy has is an older one, and the colors are all faded. even the gold trim pieces, so a real BRIGHT gold is not needed.
thanks for your help !!!!!!!!!!!!!
