    Please help me if you can. I am helping a friend with his 82 1/2 CR500 and I need to get the paint codes and type of paint to match the silver paint and red striping on a CR500 tank. I would also be very thankful if someone had the type of clear coat used on Husky tanks.
    Thanks. Mike

    Don't think anyone has them because Husky only made them for 6 months (if that). I assume the red was similar to their red tank (no way they'd create an new color) and the silver might be close to their frame. I had an original one, with tank, recently (sold it- such a beast) and didn't notice anything odd or unique about its color. As an aside, I'm running a silver/black combo on my 430 (shout out to Billy Grossi) and we used a frame silver mix.
