Do you know the color code used to mix the paint?

Hi Lee....

The paint was Walmart's ColorPlace interior semi-gloss. Looking at the top of the can that was mixed is the following: Base...C....24 shots...1 half shot. Accent...D....15 shots. Can size...E....1 ounce....30 shots...1 half shot. Quart...KX....24 shots...1 half shot.

I have no idea if this helps. Again, if you go to Lowes and look in the Valspar color sample rack, find the color sample labeled "stilettos, ar1906". To speed up that process, look in the blue / blue-green / teal area of the rack.

1-7-2013 update....I have included three pictures at the end of my initial photos of the details I added to the swivel bridge column. There is a gear cog next to the bottom of the bridge, a walkway around the top as well has handrails and a ladder access. Hope you enjoy...

Thanks,

Alan
