I'm ready to paint but want to be sure I'm getting the color right. My car was originally painted Homer Grey and I want to get it as close to original as I can. I have a paint chip and had it scanned. Had a sample painted but just don't know if my paint guy has it right or not.
Anyone painted or know someone who has painted Homer Grey? A modern paint code would be greatly appreciated.

Try TCP Global. Give them a call and they will take the time to find out how you want to paint your car. You should use the process that replicates the original "dull" paint of the era. Even what they called metallic was relatively dull. Unless you are a specialist in painting, do not pick out what you think you want on line. Take the time to give them a call on the phone.
