Re: Paint color for 36-5 w
Not too helpful, but here's a thread about '32 colors. Still looking for one of '36's.
Remember that judging a color from a photo, these days, is pretty sketchy business. I know a lot of folks that won't use a photo right out of the camera without a little balancing. Also the camera and the settings on it make a huge difference. So what you see isn't always what it is. -VT/Jeff https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showth...lors&showall=1 '36 stuff, not spot-on, but close https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showth...ghlight=colors what type of paint https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showth...ghlight=colors Washington Blue paint codes https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showth...ghlight=colors Bambolino Blue https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showth...ghlight=colors Last edited by VeryTangled; 02-10-2013 at 04:47 PM. |

Re: Paint color for 36-5 w
2-3 years to decide about paint!? The 35-36 ford book has all the color swatches in it. I am leaning towards the Bambolino Blue for my 35

Re: Paint color for 36-5 w
It too was a long process to get the colors my wife and I like with a two tone paint scheme. I also thought of desert sand and cordoba tan. Desert sand was too light and cordoba tan had too much gray. We ultimately chose a tan and a butterscotch/burnt orange scheme that we liked. We now very much enjoy our choice of colors. Its your car and you can paint it what YOU like.

Re: Paint color for 36-5 w
I think Desert sand, Gunmetal, or Vineyard Green would look nice and a little bit different.

Re: Paint color for 36-5 w
Torchie,
Good news re: Dupont. I originally painted the F-1 w/ Sikkens single stage (great paint). Went to order more of it a month ago and was told that single stage is no longer available. I'll look into Dupont. |
