The Ford Barn

I thought I saw somewhere a place where you could buy ford colors in a rattle can. Went through Synder's and Mac's but didn't see it. Anyone know where to buy it ? Also where to find a good color chip guide so as to get the right color for my 1929 coupe. It's a dark green. Thanks !

Just curious, how did you choose the Finish Master located in Appleton, Wi

The OP didn't post his location. There are Finish Master stores all across the US. Surely there would be one closer to him if he revealed his location...

One of his old posts sez he's in Ortonville, Michigan (Detroit area).

A good auto paint supplier can match the paint and put it in rattle cans. I have done it several times. Usually have to buy three or four cans minimum.

TCP Global in S. Ca, can still mix acrylic lacquer, enamel and of course the contemporary formulas and send to VOC tolerant states. They have the original Model A formulas and can match a wet or dry sample. Have never had them mix rattle can formulas.

Thanks to all. I don't have a real good place on the car where I can take an actual chip or sample from and give it to the paint guys. I think best bet is to ask for it by name, as the only green listed for a '29 coupe body is Vagabond Green. The color appears everywhere, door inners, trunk inner lining, inner deck lid lining, etc. Thanks again for the info. Yes, live in Ortonville Mich. Go Blackhawks !!
