I have a 1992 Volkswagon Jetta GL, built in Mexico. It is bright red -
I believe that VW calls this paint Tornado Red. It has a white base or
primer coat underneath the red, which makes it much brighter than if it
went on over a gray primer.
I know I can get the tornado red paint almost anywhere, but no one
seems to know the exact shade of white for the base/primer coat. If
the shade is off a bit, it will make the red topcoat not mach the rest
of the car. The dealer doesn't seem to know the specifications for the
white base/primer coat, so I am hoping that someone in the group will
know.
