Extra layers of tint make the colour darker. If it's damaged it's near impossible to match because you can't blend in the colour...it would make the rest of the panel darker. If it isn't candy apple...try House Of Colour.. they sell a very nice colour chart book. It's a bit pricey but what cost is perfection ?

From today's Brisbane Times - Wivenhoe Dam reached 55.67 per cent capacity this morning, while the official figures for Somerset Dam and North Pine Dam were 106.37 per cent and 102.25 per cent respectively.

Seqwater spokesman Mike Foster said authorities opened the North Pine gates at 6pm last night to begin slow controlled releases, which would continue until midday tomorrow and then be re-evaluated.

Water started flowing over Somerset's fixed spillway overnight and two cone valves were also in operation, he said.

All Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast dams are now full.
Wow.... now that's a ton of water...

Cam, Many folks don't realize the capacity of Wivenhoe is equivalent to 2.5 times the volume of water in Sydney harbour. At 55.67% full it is more than that in Sydney harbour.

That's an awful lot of water.
