dull aluminum is NOT a good choice. That is used in areas suck as headlight housings or taillights. If you are not doing a judged car then the cast iron sprays out there would be closer if you don't want to mix a batch your self.

----I have successfully used 65-66 Corvette knock-off wheel paint from "Long Island Corvette" for the darker portions of Pontiac and Olds rally wheels. They have quarts as well as rattlers.....Bill S

Not all years Olds used the same color paint for the wheels.

1972 was closer to dull aluminum.
