I was looking at all the paint code options out there for a Pacman restore...

I see that some say the sides have orange on it and not red?

I was always under the impression that the cab is yellow - still trying to figure that one out...which color....

Red for the ghost eyes, etc.
Blue for the ghost body, etc
and a black for the rest.

Am I wrong?
 
I think everyone's confused with your question. Pac man sides are yellow, always have been.

Yes. I can understand that. I wrote it this morning before going out. Realized a HUGE typo in the first original post! :)

Maybe these paint codes could help explain (this is what I was reading that got me a little confused)

I do understand that the cab is yellow ;)

What I am referring to is the "orange" and blue that are used for the ghosts in this restore.

I am about to start prepping my project, so I am looking on the web to see the paint codes used for stenciling these on.

There seems to still be a debate on the yellow...
 
The 'orange' is actually red.. it just takes on an orange tinge because of the yellow below it.
 
So would these codes be correct in using for a Pac restore?

I am asking for all of them (especially the "orange)".

Any advice?
 
I'd suggest you get with KLOV member Talon2000. His pac man colors are easily the best match i've ever seen anyone pull off.
 
I have his codes. He posted them, however, they are automotive paint. I have never used that before.




The codes Kevin (Talon2000) posted are just the labels, they won't do you any good if you take them to be mixed. Below are the actual formulas that were used to make those colors.

Joe if you would you like me to send you samples of the colors so you can get them matched locally PM me.

Other than the higher cost (much higher), they are simple to use. Here is my first attempt:
