I need to touch up (for now - may respray at a later date) my Stern Scramble. Does anyone have any guides for the colors, in particular the yellow? Is there a code I can use at Home Depot? And is there any specific type of paint I need, should I use some sort of thinners etc?

Tnx
 
You'll always be better off mixing touchups yourself when it comes to paint. There's no code anywhere that will match yours close enough without looking obvious you touched it up. Every cab faded differently, was a different mix of paint and aged so you'll do yourself a favor getting it mixed on your own. If you were to repaint the whole thing it'd be different, but to touch up that's the best route.

Yeah I was kinda thinking along those lines actually. Maybe I will try to color match to the "cleanest" part and get a little dark and light paint to mix and match as needed. Mostly its for inconspicuous parts of the cab but I do need to repaint the entire inner section (the inner sides, around/above the screen and bezel)
