Try, Tri City Paint (TCP Global) color called Jet Black, matches and worked great. By the way Cadman, next time your in a paint shop look at the black color charts, there are many different shades of black. I couldn't believe it when I looked at them.

Back in '64 there was only one black, but "now" for modern vehicles there are many blacks.

Surely if it isn't Black it is Grey, so I agree with cadman :)

Grey is just dark white and black, I suppose, could be very dark any colour..... :-)

My wife's car is metallic black which is probably very very dark silver.

It's all crazy I know, but it keeps the paint people employed.
