They referred me to East Bay Color in San Jose (the best option as it's 2 miles from my house) - talked to John there who was very helpful. They don't do mixing any more but he offered to help get the components and mix if I really needed the help. They have the reducers and hardeners so just need to get the guards red and some purple tinter that I used to darken it up a bit.
John tried to convince me to go with the 90 line or Onyx, both of which are a base/clear technology. I really only need to do a refresh and touch up some areas where I was lax the first time around, door panels are not perfectly flat and a few other odds and ends. Open to suggestions here though... It's a very slippery slope and I've considered stripping it (again) and doing over in the original Olive color but really don't have the time any more.
Now I need to find a paint booth in the south bay :-)
