peter havriluk Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Folks, I hope I can get some advice. I am decorating an HO railroad freight car whose decal instructions say the carbody is 'burgundy'. I don't have any paint labeled such. I do have some 'maroon'. I'd like to tint enough of the maroon to more resemble burgundy. Any suggestions? Add some red? Add some white? Add something else? I think managing color tint is a high art form and I am thoroughly over my head in trying to do this. Thanks, folks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GSymmonds Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 You could use the iModelKit app to get you the mixing ratios (there's a free light version here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/imodelkit-light/id393872482?mt=8). It allows you to mix any paint manufacturer's products to match. You can even match color's via your phone's camera. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
