Searched high and low, probably in the wrong places, for the paint code on my Sequoia, don’t want to paint the whole vehicle, but a few panels need some attention. Any direction will be helpful, thanx

the original paint was Enron paint.
It is very toxic and only aircrafts are able to legally use it.

Sir, professional automotive paint suppliers have salesmen with special cameras that go to body shops daily to match paint colors. Even with a correct crossover number it probably has faded.. most will come by or meet you someplace and match the area you are going to repair or look under the mirror bracket to get total repaint color. I just had this done for painting a sunvisor and match was right on.

They sold me a pint of single stage urethane, 1/2 pint reducer and 1/4 pint of hardener. It was BASF brand.

Sometimes I get the feeling that my posts aren’t getting out to the net?
