    70 S shroud repair

    Had a couple conversations with Damon (Series 900) recently about sourcing an amber shroud for a 3.2 SS twin plug project. His shrouds look amazing and I had convinced myself that I would probably go ahead and replace the red shroud on my 70 S engine which has several battle scars...more like missing limbs. I decided today that I am going to repair the damaged areas (create a negative mold and section in missing glass) and keep the original shroud. My question is...what is a close approximation of the correct red for the shroud? I fully realize that the shrouds originally were not painted, but the resin was impregnated with color. After my repairs I will need to re-color the repaired areas. Anybody have any suggestions for hi-heat red paint that looks acceptable? These are my primary problem areas...
