If you have access to an automotive paint stores database where it shows the different colors %'s that make up the formulation for a color,like the bright blue poly suede mentioned here, you will see a very small component is actually called "texturizing agent". My local automotive PPG store, 5 yrs back or so, said they could not get that component when I asked for a quart of black suede.Told me they normally just leave it out, that no one notices anyway. We went round and round and finally spoke with the local PPG rep, who informed the auto paint supply herein TN that in fact PPG still had the texturizing agent for sale, but only came in gallons . I had to buy an entire gallon, only to use a few ounces in my quart. SO without a doubt it is different paint and texturizing agent is part of the formulation. Also one member mentioned that he has looked at all his interior and can't see a textured surface.The only parts that suede is used on is the dash,rear bottom metal piece along rear window(package shelf). The A pillars and other trim is just semi gloss. Anyway, I ended up selling the gallon of texturizing agent to a restorer I helped source parts for. If you look on the PPG sheet shown on TCP, it clearly lists all the pieces that were covered with suede.And Zep is correct when he states this was simply to deadened the suns glare.GM actually called this mixture Zero Gloss.And per the original 1970 RM sheets, suede was not used on Tempest and Lemans-guess that means GTO's?? Here is a link to the place that can make the PPG lacquer.They advertise for Mopars(which all of the manufacturers used this process) but email them and give them the Ditzler code, they will make you the bright blue poly suede. One last thing.. There may be other lacquers available, but the PPG Duracryl is/was the closest to OEM since R-M(Rinshed-Mason) quite suppling the GM Paint. RM was the original aftermarket supply of GM formulas. Here are the Fisher and Tintometer codes for your bright blue suede:FisherWOA3742 Tintometer 170B25 It was originally called Med. Bright Blue Iridescence .. Hope this helps:
