Sierra Yellow paint question

[CDT]

Hi all, have recent acquired a '72 crossover in need of plenty of TLC that has at some point ended up L11H Sierra Yellow.

As I've been digging around looking for a good paint supplier, I'm told the original paint for this colour contains lead. I'll take care and use appropriate PPE when sanding/painting anyway, but the question is can I get a good match for this colour in 1K without the lead component or is that not necessary? Anyone recommend a supplier?

Thanks

Chris

(PS, I'm in the UK)

Try Colourweld.

They won't supply you with paint containing lead but they will supply cellulose paint which is what the original is.

I got my paint fairly close using my 2k paints at work!!!!
I just picked the closest yellow then tinted it a bit!!!
So it is possible!

Lee, would you be able to mix me some up to cover my flooring once I get it stone chipped? 8)
