9350 10 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 I just cut and installed my lower dash a/c vents. I have a black lower dash and rear interior panels. What is the correct paint color and finish for the fiberglass panels and dash? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikem 13 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 I'm no expert and always seem to learn by doing things two or three times. What i have learned is that it is a two part process for the fiberglass panels. After getting your panels clean from oils from your hands, etc (rubbing alcohol works very well) i spray a base coat of Krylon semi flat#1613. When that is dry, lightly scuff it with a scotch brite pad, and spray a coat of Metalic Black Charcoal (good for black interior panels from 67 to 73) available from Scott Drake. I think the charcoal paint number is L-4464. It usually takes to light top coats to get the stock look. I cant speak to the color of the metal lower dash panel. Hopefully someone else can. Good luck!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Armond 10 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 If you have the ability to mix and spray, the correct PPG number for the Charcoal black is DDL 32586. The lower dash plastic ends and the two that are on either side of the radio were flat charcoal black PPG number DDL 32651. These can be purchased online at the following link. http://www.williamwolf.com/index.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Armond 10 Report post Posted May 9, 2008 The metal door panel tops are DDL 32586 as are the rear interior fiberglass panels and window post trim. The lower ash tray was DDL 9295 and if it was a non fold seat car the seat back that the upper back seat attach's to is DDL is 32651. This is straight out of the PPG book. The code for Argent that was used on the GT wheels and front trim is DDL DQE 8568, I actualy ordered some Argent today. The williamwolf people I have bought from in the past said the formula for the Argent was no longer available. He didn't want to take the time to make it up for me, so I called the Autocolorlibrary people and they are gladly formulating the Argent for me in their house brand Lacquer. They were great! http://www.tcpglobal.com/restorationshop/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
