    Sources for '57 Chevy paint?

     



    I'm starting a resto job on a '57 Bel Air. He wants to go with the Tropical Turquoiose and India Ivory.

    I'm looking for companies with formulas for single stage urethanes. Can anyone help?

    Check Matrix if you have a local independent dealer. Exact same codes and formulae as PPG at about 1/2 the cost.

    And another source, they do PPG; http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Thanks guys, I haven't made a decision yet. So far I also found that Nason, and Sherwin Williams do early colors in single stage.
