interior trim color

[ilikerice]

Trying to find a paint to match OEM color of the grey panel on the A pillar.

I have an "A" pilar 3 gauge pod panel peice that is black and I want to paint it the same color as original panel to match the rest of the oem color scheme. I figure this would be easier than trying to paint the rest of the grey peices black.

Does anyone know of a name brand and paint color that matches this?

It is an odd color. I just had a quart mixed up of custom paint to touch up some holes that I plugged in a pillar, where I removed a tach.

The shop that shot a piece of trim that I brought and mixed it custom for me used deep-base and tinted it with B-15 1/2, C-4 1/2, and F-1.

It matches perfectly, but I should have gone with satin, instead of flat. To account for the lack of sheen I sprayed a light coat of satin clear over it.

If you are interested, I can find an appropriate shipping jar and can send you some of mine (as a quart is a lifetime supply).

I brushed it on with a foam brush and there are no signs of brush marks.

Well then. I am berry interested then. I think a baby jar would be enough and extra to touch up later if needed.

Correct on the Satin clear. I personally like Krylon.
