Trim Paint

Hi guys. Wanted to see if anyone has a recommendation for paint on the trim pieces of a 1972 Ambassador 29'. I checked out testors and stripeman, but I don't know if they carry what I need. Can anyone be more specific, or have another site to check out? Thanks!

Trim paint

Most modern body shop supply stores can match any existing paint, have many color charts to use and borrow, and can mix colors in any quantity, gloss, hardened, or be a guide guide to a good shop for application. The supply stores always know the good guys from the rookies. Small good shops will negociate a fair price. There are many choices..

another suggestion for you- the guys that do mobile paint touch up for automobile dealers have paint mixing on their rig, and are able to match paint and mix a jar or can for you if not too large quantity. This is handy if you have no auto paint supply store nearby. Most of these like "flying colors" and others are nationwide and very knowledgeable.

Hi Melissa
Just saw your question, but I dont have an answer. I was happy to see another '72 Ambassador out there!!! We also have the same unit like yours.
Do you have any photos that you can post?
We have not seen many 29 foot '72 Ambassadors out there or on the forum.
How much work have you done on yours, if any?
