Paint

[cth777]

Hi- Ive got a 97 black expedition, and Im trying to find a paint to spray on that will match the original paint. We had to sand down and cut out some rust and fill it in with a support and body filler, and so far I can only find touch up matching paint. Any advice?
Thanks

In our area we have stores that mixes automotive paint there might be one there too or you can just use an aerosol can spray that is near your shade. Some people rhere in the US use a foam roller to apply a paint called rust o leum. Check out posts in the jalopy journal.

You can run your model on ETIS and it will tell you the name of your factory color from your VIN. Then you can do what you can.

Yea we tried an aerosol spray we thought would be close but the finish is way different... its workable but I would like better. Ill try ETIS

I have bought auto paint from NAPA. Not all stores can mix paint, so check around. The brand is Martin Senour.

autozone also has factory paint that matches your code...should be able to get black easy...already in spray form
