I am going to be repainting my bezel and glove box door the factory black and silver but I had a few questions on the colors.

What is the closest match of the silver in a spray paint can?

Is the finish matte, satin or gloss?

Thanks

heres a 67 only glove box door I have. does your have texture on it like the guage cluster? I found a silver a hobby store that matched perfect when I painted mine but that was a long time ago. unfortunatly I dont remember what I used anymore.

Yes it looks the same, it also has the texture.

all of our hobby shops are out or going out of business.

Thanks for the reply

Would Krylon Matte Aluminum work? It was formerly known as Dull Aluminum and Wal Mart carries it. I use it a lot on my car/truck projects. Simulates cad plating pretty close for cheap. Good for rally wheels, too.

The silver around the edges was called "Fawn". The Paddock carries it. It was used a lot on '67 and '68 interiors. The black was called "India Black" but it's just flat black anyway.
