AshimotoK0:
Hard to see here but you can hardly tell the difference close up. Also there is a modern Mazda red that's very similar.

MrDavo:
Is it one coat, or maybe one coat plus a clearcoat? (over primer, of course).

That would save a lot of faff compared with the Honda candy 3 pack approach of having to spray it silver first.

K2-K6:
It does look really close to the car perhaps the tank is a very small amount more yellow.

It's quite a valid comparison to do it like that as your eye is a really good comparator (assuming no colour blindness) .

You could get them both measured with a colour densitometer if you could get them both into b&q if you need a finite comparison.

Its three stage pearl I think. I Reckon that the Mazda red is even closer.

Menno:
Is that a candy ruby red? (The Honda not the Mazda)
