Pretty happy with the quality of the bodywork and paint. Dupont Chroma One Base coat (now owned by Axalta), with Dupont Chroma Premier clear. Next is the C stripe.
Not real happy with the fit of the chrome ram air inserts. Have some work to do there.......... |

Question...............I need to spatter paint the inside of the trunk. What rattle can is the closest to original, or what have others used to replicate the correct trunk paint?

I bought a rattle can of trunk spatter paint form APD quite a few years ago that was correct.
I'll have to dig around and see what the can says. |

Before someone asks.........no these aren't the wheels that will be going on it
I've got a ways to go before I worry about tires and wheels! Also, trunk is not all the way closed, hence the huge gap. I know there are many who don't care for the looks of the Group 19 Donahue spoiler on an AMX..............but I do ! Several other details I need to correct also but at least we're making progress! |

The trunk spatter paint I got from APD is made by Plastikote. The part number is 502 Dark Green/Aqua

Thanks. Have also been told Dupli Color DM102 is close. Did you clear the Plastikote? My understanding is all spatter paint in a rattle can is water based and needs to be cleared over? Have also heard that Zolatone Onyx Black in a quart can, ready to spray is correct. So many decisions, lol.
