I found a picture of a beautiful MJT guitar painted in "Sunset Coral" - problem is, I want to paint my Jag-Stang in said color, I just don't have any idea how. One idea would be to get it color-matched, buy a can of paint from it, then get a spray gun to apply it.

Unfortunately I would really prefer to avoid that option, so the other idea is to find existing spray paints that come close to the color. I've also seen a "yellowing agent" from Montana Paints that I could apply over pink, but I want to try finding a close color first. If anyone can help me in finding spray paint colors like this:

The help would be appreciated.

Of course it's hard to match from the screen and photo with lights and shadows in it. But tried quickly to find something, and maybe Pantone 15-1331 Coral Reef could be some kind of starting point?

Edit: I do not know about those particular paints or anything, only tried to use Pantone color charts for comparison and above link as an example.

Ford Sunset Coral. Looks a bit dark, but maybe a better match than the lighter colors below:

Looks a bit different from this, but maybe:

Ace 48-F Coral Sunset looks closer:

Other than that, there's Light Coral Sunset available from PPG at Home Depot:

I love that color, I built a Tele last year, tried to match the color of 1956 Buicks ("Tahiti Coral") by mixing red, yellow, and white.
That Buick color should be available commercialy!
