This may help a little in matching color. I have a '74 Warrior, and the
white paint code (in Dupont Imron) is Juneau white H7848U.



The color can be cross-referenced into other types of paint by a local paint
dealer.

I just noticed an area of exposed aluminum on my wing root, about the size
of a quarter. I am not sure how and when it got there. Exposed aluminum
seems like an inherently bad thing. Is there some good way to do a
do-it-yourself job of touching this up that is both effective at protecting
the wing and looks decent? My wing is white.

Well, but how do I actually matach the paint color on my arrow? When
you say "local paint dealer", do you mean any local paint dealer (house
paints, etc.)...or does one have to go to an aviation paint dealer
(which we do not have in town)? What type of paint do I ask for?

Take an inspection cover plate off, clean it well, and take it to an auto paint
dealer (look in the phone book). They'll get you a close match.

did you know that there are 3,267,984 shades of white paint and they
all look different when sprayed beside or over each other.
I've got 7 shades of white paint on my aircraft.
.....and they're all white white :-)
