Steve: I've also noticed that to some degree. I don't know how common TSC stores are in your area, but just speculation: TSC sells a BPS brand of paint that is fairly reasonable in price compared to the top-line PPGs and DuPonts. This price difference is even more striking when your dealing with the color RED. The DuPont Centari I just got for my 460 fenders ran me $37/qt. Compare that to our local BPS price of $14.54/qt for Farmall Red. So the BPS product is attractive in price, no doubt gets purchased often, and BPS' Farmall Red is indeed brighter than the traditional IHC color tone. I would say the BPS color tends to be more of a Chinese red which has more 'orangish' hue. Another thing to bear in mind, is that the newer paint systems/mixes that allow the use of a hardener or are a urethane base will likely finish out brighter and stay that way compared to the old factory enamel jobs which were bright rolling out of the factory door but after 3 months of sitting in the sun on a dealer's lot lost a bit of their sheen.
CNKS will probably pop into this thread with the correct color codes for you.
