Matching Paint Colors

[Dominus98]

I'm in the middle of restoring my dad’s 1965 Cessna 337, and I'm hitting a bit of a wall trying to track down the right paint colors to match the original Emerald Green, Vestal White, and Velvet Black. Anyone here had any luck matching vintage aircraft colors? Any go-to paint brands or suppliers you'd recommend?

Identify who made the paint and ask them about the paint formula. If not, contact Cessna.

Send us pics after the restoration!

If you have any parts with the original colors, take them to your local paint supply store and they will do a great job of getting a close match.
