Interior leather paint color?

[Mizozuman2]

Hey everyone,

I'm curious on what color paint to use for a "leather"-ish look on the interior of a '65 Galaxie 500 XL.

It's not really a "seat bolster" since it's not bolstering anything, but that's the area I'm talking about. (The darker of the two colors on the seat). I was thinking it was a beige color.

Just thought I'd ask for everyone's opinion on here.

Thanks!

Check Testors or Humbrol military colors they have several light brown/tan colors. Don't know if it is still made but Humbrol had an Unbleached Linen color that was close to this.

Testors has a color called Fabric Tan, I just bought a can yesterday, and they also have several shades of tans and other light brown colors in the military paints like John said, Rustoleum has a couple colors one is gloss sand the other is semi-gloss nutmeg you just have to dullcoat the sand color.

Awesome! Thanks a bunch!

Tamiya also has a good selection of colors (in bottles).

Try 'Almond' which is an appliance color. They all make it.
