where did you guys get your silver macho paint? and wats it called? is it silver metallic or silver cloud? if im gonan repaint my truck i want to use the right colors that includes non glare black

What year?

78

Does your truck have the core support tag?

DT code should be 1592 Light Silver poly

ppg 3016 brochure in 78 called it Light Silver Metallic

Naturally, confirm with your research and your paint store

They can also help you with mixing a black with some flattener

To achieve a Lo Glare.

The last silver truck I did, with out a clear coat to make it look

more correct. Won't last as long if it's outside much. But looked

right.

i want mine to last, and i do want the lo glare ill use flat black if need be but my truck is outside all the time cause i park it in the yard, so im sorry it might not look correct but ill have to clear it unless i can use another color thats really really close thats not a metallic, and did you do your own paint 440 or have a shop do it?

Not smart enough to paint.

Smart enough to have somebody that know's what their doing do it.

I don't mean flat, rather they mix in flattener to get lo glare or

what some might call semi flat (or semi gloss)

If it's going to be outside then Base / Clear for sure. (on the silver part)

Can't wait to see it!

yeah well youd see the spare bed done first before anything lol im just hunting up the paint right now, then buying the stripe kit, all while doing the body work as my truck has some pretty nasty holes in the bed and doors and my floors will be a major pain. but im not going for a 100 point resto i just want it to look good and im doing it myself i will try to get pics asap
