Has anybody found a match for the red used on a Westerbeke?

Assuming that you don't wish to pay Westerbeke $125 for a half pint (I'm just guessing, it could be double that....), you might try your local auto paint store and see if they can mix it up for you. I was able to buy Volvo green at my store from their data formulations, and it matched perfectly.

Plastikote 209 ("Universal Red") is a pretty decent match. Not perfect, but pretty good. Unfortunately, it seems to be getting tougher and tougher to get -- Autozone and Walmart are no longer carrying it, for instance. (I know this is an old thread...but others may come across it the way I did, with a web-search...)
