Last I read on this site, the trunk paint is a proprietary
process that either Frank Arone or the SuperCar Workshop developed.

As I understand it, this process will only be applied to a given customers car at Frank's shop, and will not be sold to do it your selfers.

Tom and I also came up with a system that looks exactly like original complete with the fisheye type look. Impossible to sell to a DYI and has to be done in a multi step process that is very labor intensive. Both the LS6 Chevelles we had at the LS6 Showcase at VetteFest were done this way as was the Pilot LS6 at last Novembers show. I believe Tom used this on Kent M's. LeMans Blue Z28 as well that was also shown at VetteFest.

Rick,
Do you use "black/aqua" or "gray/white" trunk colors for '69-'70?
The old Dupont 389-259 spatter finish was labeled "gray/black/aqua", but when sprayed, looked like dark geay & white.
