Gallon of Dupont Centari GM 505 green - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Botietruck · 09-15-2008, 10:01 PM

I have a gallon of Dupont Centari single stage GM 505 green. Never opened!! I purchased 2 gallons and ended up going with base/clear. Recently opened the other gallon to do some cut in and I do not need this one. Can't ship it UPS/DHL/FED EX unless you want to pay for shipping hazmat, but I can make arrangements to get it to about any area of VA or southern WVA or local pickup of course. $65.00 (same color of truck in my avatar)

mind if I ask what the store price on this is?

I just bought a gallon of PPG single stage and it ran me about $150! If it's your color... it's a steal.

Mike, I paid $106.00 a gallon about 6 years ago. I'm sure it's like everything else, it's going up. Not sure what today's prices are.

I looked at your truck, that green might be darker than I need. Is it the same as chevy "dark green" for my 68?

CG · 09-16-2008, 09:12 AM

Damn...I need that 505 for my truck. Maybe you can switch labels off a large can of peanut butter so you can ship it out here =) Any idea how much of a premium it is to ship the hazardous stuff is? Please stick me in line...Ill check on it today at work.

i'm passing for now if that helps.. I know SPI sent my primer through UPS/FEDEX...

WyoRoadDog · 09-16-2008, 10:37 AM

In most cases, it's only a problem to ship "hazardous" stuff (paint, spray cans, acid) by air. I would check, but I bet ground shipping is not a problem.

Botietruck · 09-16-2008, 07:02 PM

I just called my local UPS Shipping Store and I was told that they cannot ship automotive paint. I will check with Fedex & DHL tomorrow. I just want to let everyone know for future reference.

CG · 09-17-2008, 06:23 PM

CG, I did not have a chance to call today. I'll certainly give them a call tomorrow & let you know.

CG, I checked today and DHL and FedEx said they could not ship it. I know Eastwood ships paint everyday, and other paint suppliers as well. Not sure what the deal is there, unless they have special contracts with companies such as Eastwood, etc. I sure wish we could get this to you somehow. It would help us both out. Thanks for the interest, though.

Thanks for trying.

Botietruck · 09-21-2008, 09:05 PM

ONE more time TTT

Botietruck · 09-26-2008, 10:36 PM

ttt one more time!! Anyone close by...or in VA,NC that needs it. Can possibly make arrangements to get it to you.

earl87gta · 09-27-2008, 08:04 PM

Earl, That's a little out of my range. I can get it to Roanoke, Va, maybe Bluefield. Sorry man, just a little too far out.
