Anyone CM their brownstone grill surround? Wanting to see what it'd look like

Mike1220 · March 30, 2015

Has anyone found a spray paint or a spray kit that uses OEM paint, or can match the OEM paint, on a White Diamond Tricoat truck? I have some pieces colormatched with Plastidip but would much rather have them actually painted. But would rather not have to spend the money to get a shop to do it.

Thanks in advance.

I have been looking at these guys on ebay for a bit now. They have WDT: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cadillac-Spray-Paint-White-Diamond-Pearl-Tricoat-WA800J-98-GBN-/191385360105?hash=item2c8f74d6e9&item=191385360105&var=490498280485&vxp=mtr

Can't vouch for quality in match though, but I may try a can for my BGM (G56) though. $37 for a can..

Says 100% match guarantee though. 100% refund if you aren't happy and keep the paint... Might be a hassle but might be good to go.

^ Is it just the angle and lighting, or do I see a little chrome on the top front lip (front wheel) of the wheel in the first pic?

I may give it a shot. I have a few letters lying around from when I debadged the truck. I can try it on there. I mainly want it for my mirrors and door handles.

Do it!... and let me know...[emoji23] I want to do my grille surround and headlight surround. Need to learn how to remove the "chrome" first for better end result. Anyone in here know?

Lol I may! Just steep for right now. I think for now I'll stick to my cheaper Plastidip and Rustoleum gloss clear coat lol.

At any home improvement store they sell a kit that allows you to add any paint and it turns it into an aerosol. You could try that.

Thing is I don't have the paint in quantity though. If I did, say, if I had a gallon of the paint, then I could easily go and use the spray booth at my family's funiture store.

Now that I think of it, that wouldn't be a bad idea

Just gotta find out how much it would cost...
