check out page 2 of this post, you can see a pic of the paint code, its true B5 blue....but painted and cleared a lot better then factory....my car was always faded and had the B5 looking too light, so its cool to see it this way...I guess there is three different sizes of flake in the paint too...the shots inside make it look a little dark...

Does anyone know the diff. between Organosol and Satin Black? Is Organosol textured?

Are you using a spray can for the organsol or did you somewhere else?

Organasol black is textured.   I ended up having the local paint shop whip up a quart.  Ditzler code DDL9355.  PPG has a new formula but just give them the code and the paint shop should be able to figure it out.

HemiDog... got any pics of the organasol after it has been sprayed? it would be easier to get it along with all my other basecoat. If it looks good, I will probably do that...

AARRudy... you car is coming out incredible... please keep us updated!!

Here ya go Evil.  You will have to forgive the picture.  It is the best I could get last night.  This is the tail panel and it is dirty from me wet sanding the car. :clueless:  It actually kind of shows you that there is texture though.

AARudy, your car is looking wicked! :drool:

Rudy... have you sprayed the lacquer yet? How's you avoid a seam if you taped off the tail panel?
Also, I remember seeing at some point that underneath the wing was painted black too.... but it sort of followed the outline of the wing... is this stock or do you know?
