I read through a bunch of threads to find the steering wheel paint for my 50 1/2 chevy. I read that mr. graham had a good match in Limco paint. I also read about SEM taupe paint. What would be the code for PPG or Dupont?
thanks,

I challenge anyone to come up with a closer match than Rustoleum 7754 Anodized Bronze. I touched up the 5% of the steering wheel with it and it matches.
My only question for the makers of Rustoleum is, "How in the world can you call 'that' paint Anodized Bronze?!"
It has no similarity to anything anodized, nor is it even close to anything made of bronze. They should call it "Chevrolet AD Truck Steering Wheel" paint.

I will have a look to find that 7754. I was hoping to get a dupont number because I think it will be a bit more durable in the long run. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,281 Renaissance Man | | Renaissance Man Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,281 | I have used it on my '50 truck for 9,000 miles and it hasn't changed a bit, and it is an outdoor truck.
