Hello - I am having my 73' super beetle repainted Saturn Yellow, however I'm having a hard time finding the correct paint. The person painting it is using paint from NAPA, and the sample I saw looks almost flourescent. (Looks like safety yellow)... There is nothing in their paint choices that is even close. Any help is appreciated.
