Anybody know the paint code for the claret red in the Olds rocket emblems (hood ornament, trunk emblem, door panels, etc specifically 1966) or where to get it? I have heard Testors enamel model paint might work (thick and sticky to hold on the metal), but can't really find a color that matches. Any suggestions on how to paint (small paint brush?).

Looking for input on the correct shade of the Argent Gray to use. I know some of you have done a lot of research on this, so please post the paint code in PPG, Dupont, and RM Diamont if you know them

Also, I know the digital photo shades can't be trusted, but if you have a close up photo, then please post it here.

Below is a photo I took of an OCA best in class. It appears a bit dark but I'm not sure. The 2nd photo shows 2 other wheels in slightly lighter shades:
