I was going through the list of things to do to Dad's 914-6 and I have a couple of places I need to weld, and this creates a couple of touch up spots. Car is not in original paint, but was reshot in PPG Deltron lacquer. PPG has discontinued production as of April 2018, and said it can be had until supplies run out.
I do not wish to reshoot the entire car for 16 sports all the size of a quarter, maybe a dollar for the blend. And then two spots that are out 4"x4" Anybody know of a supplier that still has some base and tint in stock to make a batch of L20E? My local supplier did not have any left on their shelves, said they had not sold it in years. Kid had to get an old guy so we could talk lacquers. Stoping in at the supplier in Cincinnati just to see. Uncle used to work at PPG, but he is long since gone, so I can't get him to conjure up any. |

The Deltron I've used was single stage (urethane), and I think it comes in BC/CC too - are you using the word "lacquer" as a generic term or did it actually come in a true lacquer? I thought lacquers were out a long time ago, no?

I thought lacquers were out a long time ago, no? I believe you are correct. Deltron is single stage and just confirmed as I have some still from years ago.. Lacquers were done in the 80s I believe. |
