    Great work! Thanks for all the progress pics.

    Tropical Turquoise / India Ivory
    I might mention that the Turquoise has many different shades depending on brand and where you get it,.

    Charlie, when I was in looking at colors a while back my paint guy pulled out a set of cards for OEM colors, used by the commercial shops when they're trying to match existing paint on stuff that's not too old. Some of them had a dozen or more shades of one color that could be mixed, and in the sun some of them ranged from stunning color to butt ugly.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
