    I guess I am not in the mood today...we tried about 6-8 different paints (including 3 Ford Colors) and we actually found a can of Dupli-color Sandable Primer that matches perfectly. It even has the right sheen that matches our interior. Obviously you do not sand it The number is DAP 1692 Gray Hot Rod Primer. We got it at Reilly's autoparts but it's Dupli-color so another auto parts store should have it. Hope this helps.

    You should see how fast he eats..........He can do the broiled chicken in mid 11's at three chomps per second! I'd hate to be Becky though....... I've seen him asleep at the tree, and snap his mechanicals on launch, but atleast he didn't spill his lube. I'm not sayin, i'm Just sayin.

    I really believe the many different paint batches is what throws the color off. It also depends on when they made it, humidity, etc., etc. I tried 3 different Ford colors and none of them worked for me. Now someone could have a Ford can from a different paint batch and it matches really well. It is mostly trial and error. That's why I went to the junkyard and found an 03 CV and took some of the interior trim pieces out to test paint the color first and then see if it matched up in the Marauder. That would be my advice to anyone who is painting trim peices. Get some extras and paint to make sure the color matches.

    Body & trim parts are disappearing as fast as we speak. Our Marauders are getting old!!! Five years from now we will be in a pickle for this stuff. Electronic components not so bad. A friend of mine runs a body shop & he buys wrecks & resells them. Paul bought a 2009 Denali that had a minor dash fire from the insurance company. Get this... he needs 3 dash harnesses to finish the repair... Generous Motors does not carry parts to fix this vehicle... talk about abandonment... My friend is out 17 grand unless he can source an identical 09 Denali. This is a crime that a company can screw people this way.

    Old thread but BUMP! Still curious if another Dark Charcoal color has been shown to match? My window control area has a few marks from jewelry and I'd like to restore it. I really don't want to source Dr. Vinyl for such a small fix every time there's a flaw.

    oops that's not the thread I posted more detail on but it does give you the paint that you can still order from SEM that is the best match.
