Paint Code 2017 3901MB Cool Vanilla

I am looking for the paint code for my 3901MB Autumn Fire paint scheme. I have all the paint codes except the main primary color of Cool Vanilla. Does anyone know what it is? I did not receive my touch up paint with my Redwood and Tim Cress has put me in touch with Sherwin Williams David Mortimer. He needs the paint code for the Cool Vanilla. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Tony & Marti

At the Redwood Rally last summer, they said they were changing paint suppliers from Sikkens to Sherwin Williams

I work in the automotive industry. Sikkens is considered an excellent high quality paint. Those shops who want to save money shoot Sherwin

That's what I always heard as well. I was impressed when I heard our Redwood had Sikkens paint when we bought it in 2013.

My 2013 36RL, built in Sept of 2012 has never been under cover, gets waxed once, maybe twice a year, and people still think it's new. I'm totally happy with Sikkens paint and a good friend who owns a big Body Shop won't use anything else.

Also Silkens is very proprietary and unless you purchase from them you will not get the same exact color. To change paint manufacturer many stores that specialize in paint have a computer camera that can take a picture of the color by holding against the color. Then they put the data into their computer and it will find the closest match possible. To give you an idea on my SOB I did this and the color came out to be a 2001 Hyundai Elantra. mixed it up and it was a perfect match. As far as a new mixed color to match I would tend to believe the metallic colors might be the hardest to bring in a prefect match because of the proprietary blends of metallic material.
