Rattle can paint - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Jim Nolan · 06-12-2015

Does anyone know of a reliable paint supply that will supply in a rattle can? One site sent me there's and it looked more orange than bright red (81U). For some reason the paint on my drivers side molding is coming off.

Thanks

Jim

Check with an auto body supply shop. The last can i bought was $23.

My local paint supplier (at the parts store) has custom mixed me rattle cans before that I had no issues with.

Dittos on the AUTOBODY SUPPLY store. IF you want to test some paint, I still have the wrecked hood and bumper fascia from my red 90 I could test it on.

Also, there's a local body shop owner I know that has a gizmo that reads the paint (like a special camera) that gives him clues on what to mix and match to get the color as close as possible. I would imagine you have a good shop around there that could do the same.

Brett might check in here with recommendations too. I assume you are not intending to remove the belt strip before prepping and painting, right?
