Finding paint, Finding a color match can of paint Options

[Deusexmachina77]

I hate resorting to this site for obvious questions. But I have scoured the internet for a couple of cans of custom color-matching spray paint, and I have come up empty.

I have a 1976, and my color code is L31M.

I don't have a spray gun, but I could purchase one. I have a compressor.
I'm only repairing my front trunk; one can of paint should be plenty.

Please recommend where I can order the paint from.

Thanks,
Victor

Any local automotive paint supply house can mix paint either by color code or by color scanning off an existing panel. The headlamp cover is easy to remove and is big enough to scan and capture what the paint has faded to.

Color match with never be perfect without blending to other panels but color scan can get amazingly close.

There are many supply houses that can custom mix as 2k urethane / epoxy and put it into a SprayMax can that sprays an amazing pattern. Great for small repairs

Likewise you can get SprayMax 2k primer either off the shelf at paint supply or order on Amazon.

I really love SprayMax 2k primer because it eliminates the need for mixing, and spray gun clean up. Just fix a little area, shoot with primer to prevent flash rusting, move on to next area. If you don’t use it all that day, it will keep in the can for another 2-3 days before it hardens.
