Black single stage paint.
Hi guys and gals. I tried this once before, but now my 36 coupe is close to being ready for a new coat of black single stage paint. As you know there are many shades of black. I am looking for a nice deep black. Some blacks seem muddy with too much brown or gray. Many of the paint suggestions that were given to me in the past or no longer available. I would appreciate any help. I have seen many BMW's with a nice black, but I haven't been able to find the paint code.
Thank you Frank |

Re: Black single stage paint.
Stop by an auto paint store and ask your question. They have paint chip books you could look at.

Don't know a much prettier black than the fenders on a Model A Ford or a 32/33 Ford. I would imagine that ANY paint manufacturer would have that code!!!

Re: Black single stage paint.
Go to a local automotive supply store and buy a small sample of Nason black single stage urethane. You should be able to get them to mix a pint sample for
you to try. I used a lot of Dupont Centari Pitch Black (no longer available) when I restored my 32 5Win may years ago. Nason's black is very similar and one Hell of a lot cheaper than PPG's single stage Concept. I think you'll be happy with the Nason. |

Pick out the one that suits you. There will be a color code sticker on it somewhere.Probably under the hood. Just write down the year of the car and the paint code. The paint store will take it from there. |

Re: Black single stage paint.
The black handed down from the ages was "Coach Black" no extra colors in it.

Re: Black single stage paint.
I just ordered an extra quart of Centari 99A a month or three ago. Last two times it came in an Axalta can.

Re: Black single stage paint.
PPG's black urethane is the blackest of the blacks.

Re: Black single stage paint.
I use Sherwin Williams 2nd dimension. It’s a nice single stage paint. Have painted tons of black Model A fenders. You can sand and buff it now or ten years from now .

Re: Black single stage paint.
Nason sells an over the counter single stage black that is a very good quality and very "black" black.

Re: Black single stage paint.
What ever black Buick used for their Grand Nationals in the '90's is one of the black-est blacks I've seen.
