Default Paint formula

I know their has been a change from the original formula, but can some one tell me where I can get the paint formula for 1963 Sebring Silver?

Thank you

Tony

The formula hasn't changed, but the tints to mix it have changed.

George, You may have answered my problem. I have a Lyndale Blue 67 Coupe. It was painted in lacquer base/clear 25 years ago. I'm trying to match it so that I can add a 427 hood. Mix by formula is too dark. Mix by Spectrograph matches formula mix perfectly. I've been perplexed as to how/why this occurs. It must be the Tints! My last resort is called a spray out. The mixing Tech. will attempt to tint the color to correct by eye. We'll see. Al W.
