Touch-up Paint 1954 Oldsmobile Super 88

Hello All: I have 54 Olds Super 88. Is there a source for touch-up paint? Body Plate states “Paint No. S30-32”. “30” = Glacier Green, “32” = Glade Green.

Vehicle is dark (Glade) Green over light (Glacier) Green.

Any suggestions well appreciated. Thanks,

John

Many local paint and body supply stores can do a scan of the paint that's on the car and then formulate touchup paint from that. Either a spray bomb or a brush bottle.

This takes fading and paint age into account and usually gives a better match than using the factory color formula on older paint.

What Rocketraider said^^^ . I think you would be hard pressed to find a touch paint that would match a 60 + year old paint job even if one was made now. Custom match is your best bet...Tedd
