Hi Mike,
I know this is very late, but my feeble mind "thought" I had thanked you on this thread! SORRY!!
I actually do want the color mixture called out of the Goldberg plans, not the actual Shoestring color since I painted my first one by that Goldberg formula and I am building a "scale model" of my first BIG plane! That was 1964 and I have actually "some how" saved the wing decal with the original silkspan around the edges. This is the model that eventually ended up with a pair of nylon stockings used to cover the wing. I had no where near enough to home to buy actual silkspan so we ended up using all sorts of things to cover wings for repairs like parachute nylon (they were plentiful Fort Bragg's drop zones started maybe 10 miles from my house)
If I wanted the Cadillac Chartreuse I would go down to my paint guy at the NAPA store and order a can. But thanks to ALL for the help! I have talked to Keith about actually building a scale Shoestring.
