Red is the hardest color to match. If you are clear coating this PF it might be easier to get as close as possible to the color and just repaint all the red for uniformity. Good luck. Following this to see if you figure it out.

Quoted from brenna98:It's difficult because it's a primary color. If you need it to be more "red", the only solution would be to buy a deeper red.
The trick to matching colors: dab a small amount of the paint directly on the color you're matching. dry it with hot air, or wait till it air dries. Take a rag with naphtha and wipe over the dab of paint and look at it wet compared to the playfield color.
What do you see?
I have lots of primary colors (red, blue, yellow) for this very reason.
Yeah that's why I suggest just repainting all red with a new red that is close. Matching Red is self torture.
