Question on hub cap paint color
I'm need to repaint the center bowtie on some dog dish hub caps that are 1973 to 1977 that are gold.
Is there is a shade of Krylon or Duplicolor or any brand that is a good match.

I can't confirm but look at post 28 in this thread.

Re: Question on hub cap paint color
I was asking about the shade of gold, not blue, but after re-reading my original question I see it wasn't clear which I was talking about. Yes the Krylon True Blue is a good match for the 69-72 caps. I thought maybe someone knew what brand of spray paint might match the gold color but I don't think there is one.
I have a truck with Ochre/white paint so I tried some Ochre (aka Spanish Gold) touch-up paint and it's a prefect match. Guess you have to buy the high dollar mixed touch-up paint to paint the gold bowtie on a 73-77 hubcap. Anyone with more knowledge please chime in.
