Looking for the paint code for the black on the centre of the gpx hood. I want the black to be as close as factory as possiable. I bought a mod hood and i need to paint it. thanks Bruce

you mean this black this is a single stage omni (ppg product) with flattinind agent added i will have to look up the mix but it is just a straight black and matches perfect to oem ................... also good luck with the pistons i have some on the shelf and took me 2 years to find them and the rings

It looks similar to Omni MTK 9000 black flattened with SU4985 to an egg-shell finish. I would buy a small amount of the products needed and do a test panel to verify the gloss is correct. Many times the flattener (SU4985) is more powerful than needed, thus a semi-gloss formula may be needed.

Go to your PPG distributor and they should be able to hook you up.

Also, make sure you seal the area with black MP epoxy for better coverage of the Omni black. Make sure to follow the P-sheet from your distributor on dry time for the sealer as epoxy dries pretty slow.

Good luck on your build!
