Default PPG Cascade Green, and Shoreline Beige paint formula

I want to use PPG Omni-Plus base clear on my 1957 Corvette project.
The tints/formula is available for the regular Omni base clear, but there seems to be an issue with the formula for the Omni Plus.
Cascade Green PPG paint code is 41973
Shoreline Beige PPG paint code is 21054
If anyone knows the paint formula for these two colours in Omni Plus, or where I might find the formula, could they please let me know.
Thanks,
Pat

I don't believe your reaching any paint experts on this forum. Your only outlet would be to contact PPG. Ask if they are familiar with the color, have produced it in the past, and able to duplicate it in one of their quality lines.
Local paint retailers have a camera that can take a picture of the desired color and produce a paint formula match. Get a paint chip chart from an older paint color guide and try this route. Cascade green is a popular fifties color. It should be available.

I can get the Cascade Green and Shoreline Beige in the regular PPG Omni, but the Omni plus has different tints, so the formula will be different.

You need to contact PPG Paint Tech Service with this question OR perhaps John McGraw might know the answer. You can send him a PM (Private Message) thru this forum.
