VCCA Home Forums TECHNICAL - 1945 AND EARLIER 1933-1936 Current Maroon paint formula for a 1933

This is my first post. I'm beginning the process of restoring my great grandmother's 1933 Chevrolet 2 dr. sedan. I think its a Master. I'm having trouble finding a current paint formula to match that beautiful Maroon. Any help?

Welcome aboard. Autocolorlibrary.com is who I would use if you want it correct. Could you post the information from the trim tag under the hood please....Joe

Thank you. It looks like you have to order the paint through there site. I have picked up about 15 samples from a local store already and feel obligated to get it through them if possible. Is there a way to get an actual paint color formula that I can take to them? It will take me a bit to get the info off the tag because it is at a mechanics shop. Will get that next time I'm there though. Thanks again in advance.

The paint color number from the Autocolor Library is the PPG stock number. If your local paint store can access the PPG codes or mixing formula or have an interchange list they should be able to mix the color.
