At this point it’s set in stone…yellow. The trick now is to either locate the paint that was used on the clio(as it hasn’t faded a bit in some 2+ years now) or locate some sort of uv protectant. Most I’ve talked to swear this chartreuse fades very very quickly. I still have not talked to Ross Barber yet who is the regional PPG rep(used to deal with him directly @ KTA) While I have no problem touching up the car here and there, I don’t want to paint a car this color only to haev ti completely fade out in “mere hours” as I’ve been told it will as of late :ponder Right now I’m trying to get ahold of the company that paints the new NYS DOT school signs you see on the sides of the raods now. It’s this exact color, and their shit does not fade at all. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/gonna-paint-the-wrx/246110.md?page=2)
