houseofkolor.com

ppg.com

Or any other brand of auto paint out there. Do a little research then call the customer service numbers for some quotes. Be prepared to talk about number of coats, approximately how much paint you'll need per coat, clearcoat, etc. Not an easy answer.

You'll need atleast a gallon of base, a gallon of basemaker, a gallon of primer and catalysts that it may require. Call Blaise of Color in South Plainfield for prices. Tell them you want to use something along the lines of DuPont Centari single state paint. Their number is 908-757-1205

GM didnt start using real white paint on their cars until like 1992 I believe? The paint on my car is no where near "artic" white. I believe its more along the lines of "antique white" ...TTA's are the same color. I think brightish whites (like artic) make a car look cheap but a darker off-white shines a little better and looks cleaner.
