Paint Colours

Post by **reprs** » Mon Nov 02, 2009 11:44 am

My pickup is coming on an I need to spray the engine bay before I go any further. I have identified a US Ford colour by PPG called Meadow Green (PPG no 40481, Ford No M-14283)

I understand that PPG is about the most expensive paint you can get so am looking for alternative matches. Can anyone advise the best route.

I have attached a picture of a Chevy truck in this colour for interest.<br>

PPG is an excellent paint and has good tinters. Going cheaper might compromise the colour accuracy. The PPG no 40481, Ford No M-14283 numbers will cross over to any other brand of paint. I'd probably go for Max Mayer which is a good compromise of accuracy and excellent paint.
Nice truck and colour, post some pics of the finished pickup
