GY8 Gold Leaf Poly paint mix code 72 Road Runner

Post by wejewill » Mon Jul 22, 2013 11:23 am

My 72 Road Runner is getting closer and closer to final paint. I had the paint vendor mix up the Gold Poly for me. I provided him with the PPG 2307 paint chip color code from the PPG sheet and he mixed it up for me. He said when he punched in the code the color pulled up as a Ford color? When I got the paint on the car it looked a little more of a bronze color when compared to the original color still remaining on the car. Does anyone know the mix code for the Gold Poly that I can supply to my paint guy?
Thanks in advanced for the assistance,
Jeff

5309 A .That was for Dupont ,Centari Acrylic Enamel for 71-72 Chrysler products.The mix was correct.Hope this helps :beer: Gary '71 GTX

Yikes! I think if my paint guy told me my color came up as a Ford color, I would have found another paint guy! :lol: Hope you get the color you need! Scott.
