Paint on Wanderlodges

[Ron Thompson]

Thanks Lee for your descriptive explanation of the paint codes on 90's coaches. You are certainly an expert after 46 years in the automotive paint business. The paint that I just bought from Eastx Paint co. here in Houston is a Dupont, two part paint consisting of the base color paint and a hardener which mixes with the base color. Thanks again.

I know that some where in the late 90s 2000s they switched to PPG. Most jobbers Dupont,BASF,PPG,SW,SIkkens can be crossed to the product that the jobber sells but I have always had the best match by going to the OEM paint that was applied.Dupont,BASF,PPG etc. All have Color Scaners (Color Camera) which do a good job in matching colors.Base coats are hard to match with single stage colors it just depends on the quality of match that you want.Hope this helps.
