Scotty Cameron Cherry Bomb Testor's Match?

[GolfSpy AFG]

Maybe this isn't the place for this thread but I have two mildly related questions.  

I picked up an EVNROLL several months ago, and it's clear to me it's far better for me than my old Scotty Cameron Select Silver Mist Newport 2.5.  As many of you likely know, for a while Scotty's were using a sticker/decal for the red cherry bombs rather than paint, and eventually all 3 of mine fell out.  (No, I didn't store it in the trunk.)  I did what I think is a pretty good job of a paint fill, but I used a gloss black...at the time I figured it was my gamer for life, and I wanted something that looked a little different.

With the EVNROLL having kicked the Scotty out of my bag, I'm suddenly inclined to sell off the Scotty, but to do that I feel like I'd need to return the dots to the traditional red, so does anyone know a code or specific Testor's color that's a dead match?

Second, should I do that, or just attempt to sell it as is?  I'm confident I'd do a good job on the paint fill, but part of me wonders if that's a little unethical of me to simply paint it with Testors to look like "stock" condition.  Thoughts?

I’d just sell it as is. I imagine people want the Scotty because it’s a Scotty. Not because it has red dots.

Agree with the above. People change paint fill all the time.

The value of that putter isn’t high. Iirc it’s about $120-130 max price. The time to return the color to original isn’t going to be worth anything in added value to the putter.

That's the PGA Value Guide trade-in price.  I'd probably list on FB Marketplace and see if I can't get $150.

Hopefully you get that.

PGA value guide resale range is $187-$253.

He didn’t ever use stickers. It’s paint that’s peeling out. It’s translucent paint. And if you want a perfect match (he uses dykem), Tamiya XAcrylic Translucent red is a perfect match.

Thanks all for the advice here from a little while ago...finally sold it today given the ER7 raffle prize arrival.

I didn’t bother trying to restore the paint fill and listed it for $175, which is about $40 above the PGA Value Guide trade-in but about $25 below prices I found for it retail on line.  Sold it 12 hours after listing for the asking price on FB marketplace.
