Color for my new rollpan?
« on: June 18, 2014, 10:24:32 am »
Hey guys so finally got around to ordering a rollpan for my 75 c10. I am now needing to fins out where to get the proper paint. I believe I have the right paint code which is


http://paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?type=paint&paint=17772&ditzler=2563&syear=1975&smanuf=GM&smodel=Chevy%20Truck&sname=Skyline%20Blue


I am wondering if there are any links you could send me for ordering this paint online?

The chances of a good match from a purchase on line is slim.  My suggestion is to go to a Sherwin-Williams Automotive branch (preferably) or any other Automotive Paint store with a portable color eye (spectrophotometer) to get a fingerprint of your paint color for a good match.  The color eye is very similar to what a standard store or big box store that measures color for a match.  That would be easiest and you should be able to get a quart made.
