Hello all. I have been restoring my Scott Atwater 3845 1954 10 hp. Everything is going great, except for paint selection. I have 2 attachments I will post that show different paints for different years. These 2 websites have me confused as I do not know which paint to buy from REPROTINT. 1953-1956 on REPROTINT shows “loch lomond green “, while 2nd attachment from NYMARINE shows 1954 to be “metallic green”. This is messing me up and I am clueless. Any ideas guys? Thanks so much.
Edit: The darker color “loch lomond green”, I believe, belongs to the older scott models such as the shift models for example the 1-12 shift. The lighter color “metallic green” I believe belongs to the bail-a matic year models.
If all else fails, try calling Barry Ferrari at Reprotint paint and Peter McDowell at NY Marine and see if they can clarify their respective paint colors for you. I have found both of these gentlemen to be very helpful whenever I have had questions.

Barry passed a couple of years ago, but there’s two different
guys that took over his line of paint.Prepare to be boarded!
Yes, Barry passed several months after I posted that note. I was sad to hear of his passing – I had talked to him a few times and he was always very helpful on a couple of projects I was working on.
