MAILBOX and Paint |

|
|

Questions have come up regarding the color for our mailboxes. We recommend that you check with our local Sherwin Williams. They have it filed as "Gray Name Sign Mailbox" The two colors are both acceptable if you want to, on your own, create the color. REMINDER: If you are refurbishing your mailbox yourself, use the directions below |

Here is the formula for a quart of Lighthouse Gray paint. Start with a quart of Pure White satin paint and tint to the following: |
||||
| Pigment | Ounces | Shots (1/48 oz) | Half Shot (1/96 oz) | |
| B (black) | 0 | 22 | 1 | |
| C (yellow oxide) | 0 | 0 | 1 | |
| If you bring this recipe to any paint store, they will set you right up with the same color every time. Remember to use gloss black for the mailbox and white for the lettering on the post. | ||||
