Vinyl top trim paint code?

[Rpryor]

I have a dark blue 1986 cutlass Brougham . The trim around the vinyl top needs to be painted. I've bought 5 or 6 cans of flat dark blue but nothing really matches the original color. Does anyone have a paint code or knows something that will match?

The GM code was "E" in 1986, Dark Teal Blue Metallic for the vinyl.

I have no idea what the paint code would be for it.

As far as the dark teal blue metallic paint on the car, it was GM paint code 31. WA8592

In mt '86 PPG chip book it list two dark blues for the vinyl tops. One is 28 for non metallic & only used on Chevy's. The other is 31 for the metallic (poly per PPG discription) & used by all divisions. I do not have a current PPG code, just the discontined one which is UCV 2-1114. Not sure how off the body 31/WA8592 (PPG 3760) dark blue metallic but it might even work but might need a lower gloss clear to give it the right sheen.
