Need a code for Spring Green I can get mixed up in a rattle can or even a off the shelf rattle can color that is close.

I have the OEM code but that prolly not gonna get me far. some ACE or Rustoleum rattle can would be perfect........just needs to be close.

I know, I have done a few like that, but I am feeling cheap for this project(yard art) and if I can find a green thats close I would prefer $4vrs $16. I think Ige used something from Walmart...but don't remember what.

also not sure if the old code for Spring Green will be able to help the paint shop, I will check tuesday prolly.

i used krylon tidepool #3547, but have found celery #3543 is a little bit better of a match

OOOPS

Catalina mist

My ace hardware also had celery, but it's cap didn't look close enough in color. But hey, for $4 a can I might spray a sample and see.

Slightly lighter color than orig (but the orig is dirty)
