Sadly you are not going to find an exact match.
I've done extensive research and NONE of the aftermarkets come even close to the original color.
You closest match is a medium neutral.
GM started using the term "Cogniac" for the 60 trim code after '84, if you can find that color anywhere have at it but medium neutral is your closest match but it lacks the yellowish/tan hue.
I have NOS material but it's not cheap...

Seen all of them? We have had them matched up. Sold for Buicks & Oldsmobiles with 0 complaints. I'll send you a sample if you want. No it isn't doe skin by PUI.

I have all those color codes from multiple vendors you have on hand and pictured on your website, none of them are even close to the factory original light sand gray GM material.
So which one are you sending to your customers advertised as the correct Sand Gray material?
1953 Mocha is too brown and 1784 and 2126 Sand Gray is actually gray and VERY incorrect and 1828 Sand Beige is also far off.
I suspect the reason why you don't have complaints is the fact that you just say you don't even though you do, they don't have the headliner there to begin with to compare or they are smart enough to realize that they know that it's not OEM GM and the color chart is listed on your website.

The foam on the stuff I have has not degraded at all, I've done a peel test on it.69hurstolds said:But...I wouldn't give you 3 cents per yard for OEM/NOS headliner material now, since the foam is already old as dirt...won't be long till that's hanging like a liposuction patient's belly skin right after surgery.
