Leo B Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) It's hard to see the right color because time and light/sun have changed the shades. Some have more yellow and some more red. Correct might be radio bezel (less sun). 1. Should all gauge background plate, radio bezel, console plate be exact same matte fawn? 2. Should Steering Column and Glove Box Door (inside) be exact same shiny fawn? Edited October 11, 2023 by Leo B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo B Posted October 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 I have gone through all the parts with the original paint and the areas that have not been affected by the sun. I'm convinced that the parts are painted in different places and that's why the shades are different. That is, there is no single color tone definition. Just some are darker or lighter and some are matte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very small drop of black, red or yellow makes a big difference. Especially when you're trying to make small quantities. If you give the recipe to a different manufacturer, the end results might be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
