Ed,
The green in question is more like a kelly green and is quite different than
cascade green. Dave Lotz and I found a color in the line that we thought
kind of matched some of the photographs that we had. I believe that color
was gloss green. I am having a sample made from the Dupont numbers that I
obtained and will see how close it is to the gloss green. If its real close
I will not have this made. If it is off, I will mix for now at least 8 oz.
As this is the minimum that my chemist will make. Will keep you advised as
this progresses.
