I'm going way back with my memory. Paul in CT |
Re: Paint code Your best bet if available is to remove the glove box door and have it matched at an auto paint supplier.

Re: Paint code Most old paint codes are useless now because paint formulas are vastly different. A really good body shop can create a very close match. Painting a dash usually requires removal, anyway to get an acceptable result, making testing any good spots not diminished by age or exposure possible.

Re: Paint code Hope this link works, your paint code might be here. Look through all of the pages that come up when you search on a ‘50 Ford.

Re: Paint code I've heard both good and bad reports on some of TCP Global's paint matches. They are about the only ones that will do it without a part to compare with.

Re: Paint code Thanks for all the advice. I did get the PPG formula from a friend in NY who had redone his dash in the past. He had obtained the formula from the late Cecil Goff, former '49-'51 advisor for the EFV8 Club, sometime in the past.
Note: the dash is out of the car and has been blasted, |
Re: Paint code Cecil
Could you post the paint codes I am sure others, including me, would appreciate it. Seemed to me the their were different dash paint finishes for the Deluxe coupes/sedans and the Custom coupes/sedans. Convertibles were also different. Tom |
Re: Paint code Interior paint color also varied with the exterior color.
