I learned that back when my mom used to buy those tablets that turned the water in the toilet bowl blue. Since then I've learned a little more about the color spectrum and mixing paint. I made a rolling base to go under my band saw this week. Wanted to paint it a similar color as the saw. I thought it might look close to new Oliver green so I went to Fleet farm to see if they had some. All they sell is the older, darker Ollie green. So I brought a piece of the blade guard to a couple of big box stores. Nope. Rustoleum only comes in a dark hunter green and they don't/can't tint oil based paint there. Shucks. Wasn't going to spend big bucks on this so forget going to the automotive paint store. Then I remembered I had a partial quart of Ford Tractor Blue and a partial qt. of New CAT Yellow at home. So I did a bit of mix and match and voila! Made just enough to do 2 coats on my parts. It's 'not exactly' but close enough for a machine base. So thanks Mom for buying those blue toilet water pills so long ago. By the way, I looked online and you can still buy those blue toilet pills. Anyone here still use them? I always thought they seemed like money down the drain - so to speak. Unless you're trying to teach a kid about the color spectrum...
