    PPG paint codes for Series?

    Does anyone know the PPG paint codes for Bronze/Pastel Green?
    or,
    If you used PPG products, what did you use for a color blend?

    I have looked at a lot of websites with color codes and the PPG system does not like any of them. (DuPont, ICI, old english LR codes)

    Regards,
    Kevin

        Thanks for those. I will take them to my PPG girl on Monday for a look.

          Well, my ppg girl can do them no problem.
          She said (for my application - non metallic, not color matching a new vehicle, etc) to just get the shopline over deltron and put the money into the clearcoat.
          Any thoughts?

            use a single stage paint, and skip the clearcoat. This will give you a nice patina on the panels with time, just like the original.

              I'm going with a two stage paint, and my painter friend is a firm believer in a good epoxy primer, decent paint, and a decent clear coat. Most important being the epoxy primer. I guess the logic is, as long as its the right color paint is paint (as long as its a decent brand) and clear is clear.
