Paint suggestions

[Red89]

After multiple quotes on paint jobs for my 89’ SWB
I believe I am going to attempt to paint my new hood ,tail gate, roof .
Later on pull the bed an do the whole bed…
My paint quotes were in the $10,000 range…
I have the time a space to do it a the equipment.
But any body purchased factory paint for these trucks?
Any suggestions where to buy from?

I have painted heavy equipment an aluminum boats as previous experience but nothing that takes the finish work as a truck.
Not building a show truck just a weekend farm truck/lease truck

Thanks in advance

You cannot use factory paint, it is not really usable outside of factory equipment.
You can buy refinish color that will match the factory color. By match I mean blendable match, not panel paint.
Take your truck to a local paint supply store or body shop so they can use a variant deck or camera to get the correct formula.

Thanks for getting me going in the right direction!
