[SEL] OT OT OT - paint samples?

[Bob W7AVK]

Bill - I believe with the advent of computers, etc. this has become a 
standard service at most of the bigger hardware stores.  Check out your 
local HOME DEPOT or LOWELS, if not, then try the paint companies.

Remember an actual sample from the same material etc. works best.

Good luck,

Regards,

Bob
