If it has "No Mix" then that means I can't find a mix formula for it anywhere..

The supplier I used would almost certainly be able to mix any of those colours given only the three digit code. Although it didn't need to match perfectly on a full respray, the blue 419 mixed for my car was spot on and they didn't need to come back to me for a sample or any further info.....the cellulose was really good by the way.

the colour isn't/wasn't a std colour on fiat cars from a showroom.. but can be ordered (or could) from the info I have..

It is known in the US as School Bus Yellow.. also used on fiat municipal vehicles

Original mixing formulas are hard to come by, I will check the swatches etc that I have..
Many paint mixers will mix a colour from a panel etc.. it all depends if you want the original colour when new or a 40-50 year old faded version of the colour if they mix it from a sample panel..

I will see if I can get it mixed, I can probably get a small quantity for test purposes and supply what you need...

let me know if you are interested...

Thanks for the info. I had seen it on various sites like the one below and just figured it was a standard colour?

Thanks. I've sent them an email.
