Looking For Paint

Well, me and my dad are painting my 83 Z28 Camaro. We have decided on a color but we can't find it.

We are looking for a Metallic Black Paint with a Gold Flake in it.

We looked at BMW Sapphire Black already but the flake in it was a greyish gold and didn't meet ou expectations.

I don't want to talk about the color choice because i have already made up my mind.

Thank You

We have been to the store and we asked the guy there if he knew of any kind of paint like i described. unfortunatly he did not and there were thousands of paint chips and pages to look through we just havn't had the time to sift through all of them.

Keep looking through all your choices. With the technology we have available today you can pretty well have whatever color your heart desires.

Jaski’s here Mooresville NC (704) 658-7823 should be able
to steer you in the right direction as far as getting your paint.
They deal with NASCAR and others that require custom paint.
Happy Racing!
