Kenmataya Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 thanks gents, picked up the duplicolor 1610, looks to be a little dark - any other suggestions? Ken Quote Link to comment
difrangia Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 These links contain what I did on our 620 aircleaner. The scan of a pretty well preserved area on the underside of our cleaner housing turned up a color for a Czech Skoda as the closest color. I believe the paint shop did a minor tint adjustment to suit the match to their and my satisfaction. This was a couple years ago. They don't use their scanner any more but use a large paint sample library instead. They matched the original underhood color and the paint on the instrument cluster to my persnickerty satisfaction in the past six months using the sample library. Here's a link to a couple of posts on here that may be of assistance.

Conner Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hey Ken. The first post in Steve's first link shows how I painted my air cleaner. If you are interested I have some of that paint leftover and could probably send you enough to do your air cleaner. Send me a PM if you are interested. Quote Link to comment
Kenmataya Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 found some local stuff, may be a little green, but very close. Quote Link to comment
difrangia Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 I'm thinkin' a tad darker would be nice but as we'd say round here; "That's close enuf for the gurlz we run with". Quote Link to comment
Datsun Dude Posted August 4, 2016 Report Share Posted August 4, 2016 The previous pic had the right color. It's darker and bluer. Good try though. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment

Kenmataya Posted August 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'll clearcoat it and post, its a close match to the original. The pontiac engine seems a bit too blue Quote Link to comment
