i used this on my recent 68 Cuda dark green dash. Color, texture etc. were a perfect match. I test sprayed on area under the dash pad, let it dry and I could not tell where I had sprayed the new paint. Very good product in my humble opinion
They list the paint codes in the back of the service manual in the body section for most of the interior/exterior paints. Then you can get some good stuff from the body shop supply shop....
On my cars, when matching an exterior or vinyl color I get it maching color matched at a paint shop. the bc/cc it. if I need to "flatten or suede" look the same color or any color for that matter I just use (I'm doing BC/CC to clarify not single stage) the normal color of the car or my color matched to vinyl paint and a little corn starch in the clear coat. doesn't hurt it and you can test various amounts to change the "suede "look from a little to a dead flat. oh and it's cheap does not degrade the paint and works with every clear coat I have tried from lacquer all the way up to today's modern Dupont, PPG, Sherwin Williams and southern brand. I always spray a piece of white cardboard to test for the flatness I like in the paint
before the last coat and after cleaning it from bug parts

final coat (with 2 grams of cornstarch in it 8oz SPI clear) to flatten it to look like I wanted with no glare. 4 grams made it look"sued'y" and not what I was going after.
