[4mulas]

Hi, I’m going to try this over here. Any 6 pack car owners able to tell me if the factory paint is flat, satin or organosol or? I have one to paint for my 69 Belvedere.

Much appreciated

Thanks for both replies!
How do you find it in terms of cleaning it and/or keeping it clean? Do you have any secret methods?

seeing as the car is just a Belvedere etc and it’s not too important if I’m OE correct, would you ever think about or recommend just a satin Black type finish for ease of cleaning? An opinion from a real A-12 owner is appreciated!

I do have this though:

SEM hot rod black, has the satin , flat look.
Its activated and is easy to keep clean.
Wizard makes a flat paint protectant ,sealer that is a very good product
Bird crap , tree sap , ect wash off without marking.

I find it to be a dust magnet and a PITA in that respect. Lemon Pledge. Learned that trick from the guys over on the Lift Off Hood Playground. No, I am NOT pulling your leg. You can go over there and research it yourself.

I’m on my way to look now then . The twin stripes on my road runner are done in it and I agree with your assessment. PITA. I just blow on it. Lemon pledge? If I can’t find the info I’m going to be calling on you. Thanks
