68 Interior blue paint code.

I have a 68 that is a medium poly blue and the interior door panels need to be painted and the dash needs to be painted the same color but flat. Does anyone know what is darker blue is called or the paint code for it ?

Re: 68 Interior blue paint code.

That swatch says see interior colors on the reverse side. Would those be different?

Re: 68 Interior blue paint code.

For the 1968 Chevrolet models there were 3 blues offered.

Dark Blue RPO No. 508
Light Blue RPO No. 507
Medium Blue RPO No. 506

If you are looking for the Dark Blue No. 508 the paint refinish numbers are:

Du Pont, 4191-L

Rinshed-Mason, A-1594

Ditzler, 12409

Hopefully that helps.

Keith

Re: 68 Interior blue paint code.

For what it's worth, I used those Ditzler codes on the back at 66 Auto Color online. (66autocolor.com)

I have RPO Code 507 Blue. I bet the interior codes are the same. I was happy with the result.

Cheers,
rich

For my dash and defrost vents we just shot a matte clear over the SS paint.
