Another paint question

I'm going to order my paint for the 350k0 over the next few weeks Ash. I'm going for Candy Red/White - did you ever find out what Ford White was used? (to same me paying RS Paints prices for a basic white!).

I bought some Ford Diamond white base-coat a few months back, as I have a hunch that's what he said he used (he had done someone else's CB350K0 paint-set  prior to doing mine). I am going to do a test panel later this week, as it happens. He did two sets of paintwork Candy red/white and Candy blue-green/white at the same time. One thing I did do, was get him to give me the remains of the tins of candy paints and metallic ground-coat he used on both paint sets. I can get you the colour references if you wish ..the paint was Max-Meyer (solvent based) and Ben Powell, a member here, who works with me, found a firm who sells that paint in  aerosols too.  My CB250K2 Candy Custom Gold/White paint set was painted by a different painter earlier this year and I will compare my test panel with that paint set as well.

That would be good thanks Ash (I assume the Max-Meyer is cheaper than RS and that the reason for using it?)
