I understand the possibility of not exact matching colors but in this case I am under the impression I bought simply the wrong color.
Is "ATSF Catwhisker Yellow" really the yellow paint PollyS intended to be used toigether with it's ATSF blue (not faded at all). May be PollyS created "ATSF Catwhisker Yellow" for some other use I do not know?
Update:
Yes, it is the wrong color!
Wiki says:
"Three thin, pale yellow stripes (known as Cat Whiskers) extended from the nose logo around the cab sides. In January, 1951"
The pale whisker yellow was used for one specific scheme only. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATSF
But, what is the right Polly Scale yellow to be used with the blue bonnet scheme?
