Red/Maroon Starburst Find (1 Viewer)

What color purple you guys think these are? Seems to be 2 shades of purple but one could just be oiled more. The photo of 3 chips attached includes a radiant red.

Close…but not exact

Pretty hard to tell which colors these actually are. There are several close reds in the Paulson catalogue, and when it comes to old, used chips it gets a whole lot harder.

Maybe someone would have an idea, but likely won't be easy to pin them down. Your photos and white balance/lightning will also make it extremely hard for others to decide simply based on photos. They don't look like purples to me at all, but rather variants of red.

On the other hand it might not be super important which exact color they are either way. They do look pretty nice sorted and probably will be decent cleaned up. (Although the sun damage looked pretty bad on some of them and I'd imagine you wouldn't manage to restore those.)

Matching them to other known chips is probably the easiest option. Like you are trying to with the CDI $25, but they look really far from that color.

Nice find though, and good luck. Although I'd say in general red starburst are not the most sought after solids.
