Help!! Semi gloss black or gloss..... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Bell72 · 05-31-2008, 04:38 AM

Does anyone know if the Air cleaner assembly of a 72 Sierra Grande would have been a gloss black or a semi gloss. Also I A replacing the tow mirrors with the small mirror assembly. Could you tell me exactly where to place them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, don't know the answer, but that is a suh-weet looking truck!

Rust Oleum Satin black does a pretty slick job and looks real nice.

Bell72 · 06-01-2008, 04:18 AM

Thanks for the imput. I painted it with the gloss black but I think I'm going to do it again in the semi gloss.

You need an assy manual for the correct spots for your mirrors. Someone should give up the info.

Eastwood sells a paint called under hood black.It`s just a satin,but made to be just the right gloss that the factory used.It`s the same as on inner fenders,core support,and brackets.

Rustoleum semi-gloss here - we use it on anything and everything that is black.

Rustoleum #7777 is virtually identical to what the factory used.

Thanks ...Thats just what I was looking for.

Ace hardware has a paint in their premium line that is semi-flat black but it has a little shine to it. I use it on the air cleaners & pulleys & fan & use Krylon semi- flat on inner fenders
