Paint to Match Ultra-Cote
Any one know a good paint to use to match with Ultra-Cote Perl Blue without having to have match at Auto Body Paint Store?

Paint to Match Ultra-Cote
Check with Horizon Hobby - they had the Ultracote paint on display at Toledo, but I am not sure if it is ready yet.
Second option is to get some from Radio south RC and Tony Stillman. Granted, it is PPG Concept paint, but it is pre matched and comes in smaller quantities. I have used his stuff and find it to be a perfect match. I am not sure about pearl blue though - that could get tough. Pearls usually need a base coat of white or silver and then a semi-translucent pearl coat on top. They can be VERY difficult to match - even for a professional painter.
