Thx Tim. Based on the Awlcraft 2000 paint chips I chose Brightside Yellow F9316.
When I opened the can I found it was lighter than my yellow which although buffed three years ago looks a bit sunburned. I painted samples about 3” x 6”, progressively adding black pigment until I thought I was close. However on the larger surface of the transom it is still a bit too light. Signature gave up on trying to match the small cutout piece I provided. Even as a reference nothing from Sherwin Williams looked close. So chose from Awlcraft to get on with it. Close enough. Not Saturday night car show quality, but often compliments like from a gal and a guy last weekend.
