Paint codes and primers

[Robert Johannesen]

Jay,
When I painted my last coach - first, I decided which paint ($) I was going
to use. I picked Imron, and then (after talking to the company rep for a long
time) I used the manufacturer's recommended surface prep and
primer/sealer/fillers so that everything would be compatible. The paint turned
out great, but I did 22 days of prep and stripping and 2-3 days of painting.
Makes the paint jobs in Mexico real attractive! I had about $1600.00 in
material in 1979. But, I would do it again if I had a paint booth! Good luck.

Took the Bird to the local Truck wash for a bath. High pressure blew
some paint off in a few small places. I can see what appears to be
galvanized steel where the paint is missing.

How do I acquire the right color paint?

What preperation and/or primer (to be applied over the galvanized
metal) should go on first?

Anybody else had any experience with touching up their paint?

Thanks
