Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion Gilmore Red and Tan paint codes?

Has anyone had some Gilmore red and tan paint mixed up and saved their mix number? And from what paint company? I work at a body shop and can cross reference most automotive paint colors and I can mix the colors myself. Thanks for any help.

i think i've still got ppg numbers for both that i use. i'll look & post them up tomorrow afternoon...

Much appreciated!

Anxiously waiting to see response alos. Thanks for posing the question. Please post response here when someone has time as I would like thm also.

sorry i havent checked those yet. had a few bad days here so haven't had time to check yet....i'll try tomorrow...

I usually don't give out paint code colors unless I have matched them with an original pump. These are the colors I use for Gilmore PPG DCC72516 Honda Victoria Red, DCC82121 Mercedes White. These have not been matched to an original pump. The white is more of a cream tan color, not the darker tan. Richard

here are the ppg codes i've used. red: 74349 solar yellow: 82201. the solar yellow is really close to the butternut yellow used on the 67-69 camros chevelles etc. they both seem to match up well with the decals/globe ring etc.

not the best pic, a scan of a pic from 98.

Thanks you guys, you have been a big help! I mixed some paint up and it looks very good.
