Cuda tailpanel

[30below]

Mopardave used SEM bumper paint on his Cuda,and i recently saw a tailpanel that was done with SEM trim black,thinned about 50%.Is this the same paint,and if not,anyone know the difference?

I am not sure what the difference is, but shouldn't it be PPG Organasol Textured Black?

SEM trim Black, comes in a quart and it is reduced to spray, Satin finish and has a very miled texture and not 100% smooth, looks great, Most of the cudas we have seen have the same finish type of finish with the ppg,

Wow Dave, that is a very nice car.  I cannot wait until mine is painted black.

I used SEM Trim Black on the bottom of my car, I love the stuff and it also comes in spray cans for touch ups.

As was said above, organisol black is the correct paint to use on the tailpanel as well as the hood and fender tops on the AAR Cudas.  However the black on those above pictures looks great.  I think real organisol is kind of difficult to spray.  The SEM looks like a nice alternative.

Check out the restoration section and look for the thread on the blue AAR if you want to see what the organisol looks like.

The PPG has a bit more texture to it, to my under standing The sem trim and bumper paint are different, the quart number is SEM39144, RATTLE CAN SEM39143. We recomend to use the quart reduced for the larger paint jobs. here is another cuda we just finished.

Hey Dave cuda looks great.  How much would 2 quarts run?  I think I will need that much to do all I need to do.

[mopardave]

hey Gordon, how are things these days, AMD or Goodmark on the quarters?

[426HEMI]

Well they are still not on yet I have them and maybe move them this weekend I hope to my new house.  I hope they fit good when I get them on.
