MustangChuck 16 Report post Posted December 29, 2014 What is the name of the plastic item on which the paint example is applied? I am trying to acquire a few and don't have a clue what they are called. Thanks, Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SparkyGT 26 Report post Posted December 29, 2014 aero shapes, or spray test panels, when i was getting my 66 colors in order, i had 4x6 plastic cards with different spray test for colors, you can bend them to see how it reflects light, a few places will spray a plastic mixer container as well, so you can see the color on curves.

MustangChuck 16 Report post Posted December 29, 2014 Thanks. I Googled for "aero shapes" and didn't find what I was looking for. 4x6 plastic cards would work, but I would prefer something like this. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of spray can lids. Those would probably work as well. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, Chuck "speed shape" or "speed shapes" or "paint spray test panel car" different mfg's have slightly different shapes . . this one also comes black but looks like silver in the photo . . see the bottom right corner of the page in like below. http://www.paintwithpearl.com/pearlstore.htm Edited December 30, 2014 by barnett468 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fantastic 57 Report post Posted December 30, 2014 I saw these called speed shapes. The ones I saw were clear, and sprayed from the bottom to show the color after it would be cut and cleared. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustangChuck 16 Report post Posted January 13, 2015 I actually found several places that sell these for about $1.20 each. Even found a couple of places that have them shaped as pickups or '32 Fords. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
