Here's the thing. we get LOADS of threads asking for paint codes and paint names all the time. I think it would be cool to have a reference section complete with a pic of the car, and the paint code and info on said car. Lets start with our all time most asked question and go from there.

AST-1338 Aston Martin, the only problem is it's only availble in water base PPG, I'm not sure what to do now. The color is California Sage Green. If I can get a spray out in water base then we can do a computer match . Any Suggestions?

Ok here is a shot of my color combination. Paint job was just a quick look to see what it would look like. This was not cut and buffed and I was experimenting with a new gun. Looks so much better in direct sun. Will look even better witha properly applied paint and buffed. The blue is Dark Cloisenne Blue Metallic. Was also called Admiral Blue. Code is WA 128. The white is just a basic white from Matrix MT-63

I painted my 67 2010-2012 Camaro Inferno orange. The color is used across the GM line and is called something different by the other divisions.

The PPG paint code is: 917967

The GM code is: WA502Q

Here is a link to the GM line and what it came on and also a good reference for other paint codes. http://paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?type=sample&ditzler=917967&syear=2011&smanuf=GM&smodel=Camaro&sname=Inferno%20Orange&name=camaro2011WA502Q

The color changes dramatically in differing light conditions, for instance under street lights like in a cruise night parking lot it looks almost like a bronze/copper/orange color. In shop it has a more flat and hugger/metalic look and in bright light it just pops and has gold pearl and silver pearl hues. The color when sprayed will vary from the GM color applied by the factory because we used more base but the tints that were mixed in IE the gold and silver pearls were spot on per the mix codes.

I love the way it turned out, in these pictures it had been painted for about 2 weeks in Little Rock Arkansas, the sun light pictures were taken on the day it was to be shipped to our new home in Tucson......it's going to see plenty of sunny days now!!

If your looking for an orange to use I suggest shooting some test panels and see what you think.....also it will change with a cut and buff, by that I mean it just pops even more.

I have a 1957 Chevy bel Air that was painted when I bought it. it looks just like the color of your car. I have been looking for a long time to match the color as I need to do some touchups or just paint the whole car. Your color seems like the closest match. Like to discuss the paint job you have my email is [email protected] Thanks ,Louie
