Paint codes and primers
Jim, I also use the D-M clearcoat/basecoat urethane system now. The new stuff
is so forgiving and easy to repair. I had an 18 wheeler hit the rear of my
enclosed trailer and pushed the rear door frame about 6 inches forward on one
side. I just replaced the panel and straightened out the aluminum frame, and
used the D-M paint and it matched the Bird perfectly. But the long hours of prep
are still required. Good luck and have fun -

Jim,

Back in those days, Imron was the best you could buy. Unfortunately,
the environmentalists have raised such a ruckus that Imron is no
longer the paint it once was, nor is it the best available. You can
still buy the goo Imron outside of the US but not in the US. The
newer base coat/clear coat have surpassed Imron in quality in the
US.... One of these is the R-M Dinamint which is used on top line
vehicles such as Cadillac, BMW, etc.
