33 paint code
Would any one have the PPG paint code for Ford coach maroon,the ford code is M-978, Dupont is 246-30208.
Or would the paint shop be able to cross these over to the PPG he uses. We have spent 3 weeks preparing the car for the repaint and sure as dont want to mess it up. Worn down fingers Lawrie |

Re: 33 paint code
Any good paint supply store can cross reference the color, or "scan" the actual color and get a formula for the closest match in their particular brand.

Re: 33 paint code
There is no code that covers PPG paints as a whole. Every type of paint has a differant formula. I'm more formilular with DuPont and they have differant mixing formulas for Imron, Centori and so on. DuPont has a department that does the mixing formulas for old cars, my grandaughter was the one doing that for a number of years but is now doing formulas for cars not yet manufactured. I think she is working on 2013 or 2014 modles now. G.M.

PPG also has a color library. Contact your PPG jobber.
