Trunk paint 67 GTO
What is the correct paint for inside trunk area? 1967 GTO
It looks like a black/speckled-white type paint. Can one find it locally at hardware or paint store? Or is ordering from Ames the only way? |

EASTWOODS Grey-White lays out real nice.
Buy more than it recommends, better to have to much then not enough. I then use a Satin Clear to top coat. https://www.eastwood.com/ew-trunk-pa...hoCsCIQAvD_BwE

AC Delco or Eastwood... half the cost but comes in one can. I'm doing some 'touch-up', not the whole trunk. But maybe the 'all-in-one-can' doesn't work very well? And I found a DupliColor brand trunk paint locally at OReillys. (haven't purchased yet) Last edited by pilot737; 08-08-2020 at 03:46 PM. Reason: added text |

Why grey/white? I thought 67 GTO was supposed to have black/aqua? |

My understanding of trunk painting...
'64 GTO was the un-spattered year.
'65 IIRC could be either Black/White or Black/Aqua. '66 was Black & Aqua not sure if any were sent out with Black/White spatter. '67 most I've come across were Black/White. FWIW (Refinished one that had signs of the OE so I matched it) '68 I'm not sure.

I used The Parts Place splatter paint. Everywhere I read it's the only one that holds up. Smells really good when spraying, smells like a candy store.

67 & 68 GTO trunk paint color
Hi,
I could be wrong but I think the 66 carried a black/white spatter or splatter paint. The 67& 68 GTO trunk paint code calls for a turquoise/black spatter paint. Slightly different from the 66 GTO. I purchase my paint from the local PPG paint supply store. SEM or 3M has the proper paint code and texture.it cost $8-12 dollars only needing two cans for proper coverage. 3 cans if your going for a heavy textured look also. The product works great! Hope this helps. |

[QUOTE=428ho4spd;6167997]Original finish...[/QUOTE
Thanks. Hard to tell from the picture. Is that black/grey or black/aqua? I think mine is also the original paint but hard to tell if the splatter is grey or aqua. I suppose it doesn't matter that much; I'm planning to sand and touch-up a few small areas. Last edited by pilot737; 08-09-2020 at 04:45 PM. Reason: correction |

Looked at my '67 original trunk paint today and what is left of it is black/aqua.
