Star Trek TNG Engineering PADD paint color

[sctcarts]

I'm currently building up a TNG Geordi engineering PADD and am not having much luck finding a spot on color for that orangish-red. I've tried a few different cans (testors acryl, duplicolor, etc) but all have a metallic flake to them and from all the pictures I can find it doesn't look like there is a flake on it.

Anyone in the community have info they'd be willing to share?

Which PADD specifically? Geordi had 3 PADDs.
If you are referring to the Season 7 PADD, it was red paint mixed with PearlX pink mica powder and airbrushed on.

I have a mid-TNG PADD on my bench now. I'm using Duplicolor Super Red II (B741560) for the base color. For the matte grey buttons, I'm using the Duplicolor grey primer.

Yes, this is the one I’m working on as well! Thank you for the information on the red!
