What Color Is It?
« on: March 16, 2015, 07:34:36 AM »
Does anyone know the number and/or name and/or have a good source for the Kawasaki Green used on the Tournament of Champion Sleds?

Mark, I don't know the name, but did see one painted w/duplicolor Grabber Green and feel it looks like the closest to Kawasaki lime green that I could tell. It is also on sale at Caswell plating for a really good price.Joel

PlastiKote Hot Rod green is almost a dead ringer also. Lots of Auto Stores can order it, if they don't have it in stock....or order on line. I used it on a "Vintage" 1977 Kawasaki stand up jet ski as a trim color on a white hull, and it matches some Kawasaki lime green decals that we found.
 Check out ColorRite Kawasaki 777 lime green for either rattle cans or quarts. This is a match for 2005 models.
  Apparently, Kawasaki Lime Green changed a slight bit from year to year.... ??? :(

Grabber green was available at the local auto supply.  I did a little spray out and that is pretty swank colored paint.  Thank you for the advice.  I think that the project schedule is accelerating.
