Default Re: Factory pack lacquer

Really nice paint touch-up displays. I am looking for pints and quarts. GM positively used all of the 3 listed suppliers for paint. From the days I worked in the shop doing a lot of collision repair on late sixties, thru the seventies cars, we always felt R-M Factory Pack Lacquer was the best match, our first call when we ordered paint. Seldom did the local jobber not have EVERY color we ever needed in both pts and qts in stock ready to deliver. Exception would be Cadillac Firemist colors and Corvette exclusive colors sometimes had to be ordered in from the company. We sometimes didn't even call for the paint til after work was in process. Overall repaints were store mixed because a gallon saved about $10.00 over buying 4 factory pack quarts and no panel match was required. Here's a little sidenote.....I used an unopened pint of Ditzler Factory Pack '70 Chev/Pont code 43 Citrus Green last year to get the color conversion correct for base/clear on my restored '70 Z/28. After an hour on the shaker it was a dead on match to the non-faded cowl and trunk underside of my car.
