First picture shows is what I think was the SEM powder blue.
Second is a custom mix done by O'Reilly Auto Parts near me.
Could have used a little less gloss.
Center console and steering wheel were not sprayed. View attachment 128639 View attachment 128640

Damn I love that, The first one yeah doesn't look right but the 2nd is on Spot!
It maybe won't be till spring until i get too it. No Heater in the front garage and it's a mess in there.

Tag is on the cowl in front of the windshield on the drivers side. Dont bother looking though. Most headliner trim Ive taken off arent even sprayed on the back.
As far as color codes on the tag, look for the number 24. Thats the code for lt blue

This one thing is THE MOST IMPORTANT part of doing an interior color change. Clean, clean and clean again. Then adhesion promoter or you wasted your money on materials and the time it took to do it. If you look at my build threads you'll see how many things Ive resprayed and so far nothings failed. Plus my friends Camaro that was done a few years ago.
