New Fiesta Red Fords!
Posted: 29 Apr 2012, 12:27Like many otherss on this forum I've noticed a few new Ford KAs recently, sporting a colour very like Fiesta Red.
Looking on the Ford website, I've discovered it to be one of the standard colours for the KA (the only other red being a darker metallic shade a little like CAR), and it's called SUNRISE.
(Be a bit confusing if they used the name Fiesta for a KA wouldn't it!)
By the way, my own experiments in my garage attempting to mix a nice match fro FR suggest you need to add a lot of yellow, a fair bit of white and even a trace of black (for that 'smoky' efeect) to the red. I forget now what proportions I used but sometime I'll try it again and report back.
