Paint chip information for Pearl Grey, please?

I know Roger P gave an exhaustive answer to my request for information on Pearl Grey a few months back, but I wonder if anyone has a paint chip with mixing information that they could post a photo of? I’m looking for Pearl Grey for a 1955 140DHC, and my painter is struggling to find information from his usual sources. I did find a thread on Birch Grey that included the gram proportions of the various tints on the back of a paint chip, and wondered if anyone had access to similar for Pearl?
Thanks,
Roger

Agree with BigJim’s recommendation of Ken & Lyn. I only have the attached somewhat meaningless references to Pearl Grey:

Thanks, all helpful stuff. If the painter can’t get it from the info in Rob’s post I’ll contact Ken. It’s a bit tricky asking for codes etc. when I can’t buy the paint from him!

I think this is the same formula Rob posted above.

Exactly what I was hoping for, thanks Mike.
