RE: [CBQ] Q Mineral Red Paint

["'Harold Huber' sarge9@bresnan.net [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

Noel,

I am severly color blind When I entered the Army they had to ask me the color of the tab that was in the test book to get me in, 26 years light Infantry. When I went to college (after military time) I worked for Sherwin Williams.  I was the go to guy for matching paint, I would match it for what I saw with my eyes.  Some people would not ask for anyone else but me, I've even been asked why I quit the paint business, #1 my toxicity level has risen very high (no OIl or laquer based paints.) I use only acrylic.  #2 a college education. I have found the ruddy spray primer offered by Ace Hadrware to be very close to Mineral Red Primer in a spray can. By the way I get joked with a lot going from a Command Seargeants Major, Commandant of the Sergeants Academy to a mild mannered Librarian with 8 endoresments.  But alsas I have retired fully and have the small LLC Ultimate Research.

I may have found a close match for the Q Mineral Red in a rattle can. Came across it at Tractor Supply.
It is Magic Red Oxide Primer  item # 8-22989 Tractor,Truck, and Implement spray enamel. Another Magic red primer is a little redder. Item # 8-20141 Red Spray Enamel.
  Since I do not have a Q mineral red paint chip I am going by guess and by golly.
If any one checks these out, please let us know your thoughts.
