Acco colour code was created by overthetop
Hi I am after the paint company colour code for "Forrest Beige" which was a colour used on 70s Accos, it is a cream colour it was spelt like this in a couple brochures. Cheers for any help.

Thanks for that Beaver ! I see the IH code for Forrest Green was 476 would anyone be able to cross the 476 to a paint company, it is a cream with a very very slight hint of green , Cheers

Any auto paint supplier should be able to get details of the spec.

Thanks - I have just checked with a couple suppliers here in NZ but I am still struggling to cross the number IH 476 or "Forest Beige" to a recent paint company spec, Could anyone give me a heads up on who I should talk to, Cheers
