My 1970 Barracuda rear panel (where the tail lights and license plate is at) has gotten worn, (and suffered from some gas spillage) and I was wondering what the correct paint for it is and where I can get it some (if available).
Does anyone know if it is gas proof or how to make it so?
Thanks

It's called "orangesol". It's a slightly textured flat blackish looking paint with a slight grayish hue, it looks a little more gray here than it actually is because of the light. It is available out there. You could give Resto Rick a call and see what he suggests as far as paint code and sources. He's a board sponsor and a good man. Here's a nice pic someone left on the web...

The reason that one looks too grey is because it is not organisol, it is argent.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
