I was floating around the forum the other day. Someone posted a web site for auto factory paint colors. I can't seem to find it now, can anyone help? Thanks.

I use this one;

Dupont Color Chip Historical Library

On the bottom of the page, click on "Launch the DuPont Refinish Historical Color Chip Library" and just go from there.

Merci, Bruno! I didn't know DuPont had this. I've bookmarked it.

One thing I have found is that with a lot of colors it's very hard to tell what they are from chips on the computer screen; I suspect it's a combination of digital imaging and limitations on resolution in the screens. You can also buy paint chips at not-too-dear prices from a lot of the literature dealers in Hemmings,Cars & Parts and eBay. I see most of them running $6-10 for a set.

I saw a link the other day to TCP Global where they had a pretty good factory color chart.Sorry I don't have the link.I think it was on a thread on the workhanks

That's the link I posted above. Still seems to be something amiss with the site.

Thanks for the Dupont website. I wasn't looking for a particular color right now. I wanted a source for all stock factory colors.

What is the make of the car, and the year of it?
