    Default 85-86 DARK CHARCOAL TRIM CODES

    You can thank pnawang for this info! He has a painter who used to restore these cars and these are the codes he used. If anyone uses this info before I do (which may be a few months) please post results!

    I can verify that normal PPG 33717 is the right color but it comes out flat unless you clear coat it (then its too chiny). You need to have the color mixed special as defined below:

    Here's the formula for 33717 single stage. its based
    on a quart can of mixed color. the manufacture is PPG.

    code color parts

    dmc902 black 226.6
    dmc900 str. whi 215.8
    dmc901 str. bla 137.5
    dmc929 lt red 76.0
    dmc904 blue 38.5
    dx995 matt bas 421.9

    additional notes:

    mix 6 pts paint - 2 pts dt reducer - 1 pt dcx61
    special low gloss color

    this is the correct color for all body side molding and trim for
    1986 mustang gt - charcoal.

    Thanks for the information. My car should be entering a paintshop before the end of the summer. I will be sure to let everyone know how it goes.
