    that's how I've gottne just perfect paint for a vanagon, by the paint code
    right from the van.

    but, I'm not finding the paint code on my new 87 Wolfsburg.  it's 'silver
    gray' .
    someone got the link to a site that tells all the colors and paint codes by
    year and model ?
    thanks,

        What paint did you use to get a good match?  If you can provide the brand
        and type (like "Super Gray" or such) that would really be some good info.

      I took a table to my local Kwal paint store and they
      matched it.  The product is an oil-based egg-shell
      finish " Accu-Pro Int./Ext. Alkyd Eggshell Enamel"
      and the color mix for a quart is B14, C6, I2.

      Of course, this mix only works for Kwal since other
      paint companies have their own bases and pigments,
      but others could do the same match.
