Title: What color white is right for a mint

I did the search first like a good boy:), with no results:(. My question is, what color white should be on the mint. The tank was a faded white and after wet sanding it has the dark green original gel coat. It is going on a 74 1/2.
Thanks James from MO

James,
I am only going on what I like and I use the Ford Wimbleton White and I have them mix it as if the were painting a front bumper to give it more flex, but just a standard paint job will do...you know over kill on my part. If you want to send me a email I will send you a picture of how it came out.

So Ron, let me get this straight. You took a Berkshire, punched it out to get 400cc, then painted it Ford Wimbleton White?

You are the master..........
