all paint companies have old cat yellow as part of their equipment enamel line up. and you can buy sample cards from the acmoc store. it is still used however for school buses and the like as DOT highway yellow. safety yellow is also very close. any paint shop can mix the colour for you from formula. and is available in lead or lead free formulations.
the secret is dont over thin it. use good quality thinners or shellite. remember 3 coats to get a full colour. with enamels it helps to mix up 4lt of colour at a time a empty paint tin is useful for this to give more consistent results.

what's the benefit of going with enamel as opposed to a single stage urethane (or two stage urethane for that matter)?

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
