Your local automotive paint supplier/wholesaler can mix it for you and probably put it in a spraycan or sell you the self-spray kit cheap.

Don't know how far you wish to take the paint process PMT, but I will share with you the part numbers to my two step Deep Candy Purple color. All PPG product.
Base color: Deltron 2000 #DBC59840 ultraviolet purple
Hardner: DCX61
Reducer: DT870
Clear color: Concept DCU2042

A little longer process, but sprayed with a High Volume-Low Pressure paint system with great results. And I am in no way an experienced painter.

I like that color :D

Re: purple engine enamal????
 

Thank you. I was trying to match the powder coat color that I had the upper drives done in. Spot on match!!!!!! The two step (color-clear) process gave me that deep color look. Glad I took the paint supply guy's suggestion. In the Detroit area, Painters Supply, the best!!!!

it appears blue in the pic......but its purple???
I was hoping to get something in a can as I have no air or anything.....and to have someone do the two motors it will cost like 4 or 500 bucks....I was hoping to do it for like $15......doug

apparently Dupli-colour has one called "Plum Purple" p/n DE1640 although I cant find it up here.....some places carry Dupli-Colour but dont list that p/n.........the big players in this area are VHT and PlatiCote.....I spoke to Dupli C direct on the phone and they told me about it.......I may see if I can get them to ship it direct from Florida

You might wanna check with OSO member 32caliber.

He is one of the world's leading experts on purple. :D

Duplicolor does indeed offer a purple engine enamel. To me, it is a little dark, almost maroon. I can get it at the local parts stores.

Con you still use these products if you keep your boat in the water? I usually use mercury paint but would like to try something diffrent maybe a silver lower?

Any thoughts would be great.
