Working at Pep Boys has had some great benifits. I was gonna go to the Hobby Shop to pickup some Paint for all my VX models to match the colors of all the VX's and then get some custom colors for the rest. Well I decided since we got small bottles of touchup paint I would go check and see if we had any Isuzu colors. Well I wnet to my VX got the Paint code and wham the number doesn't matchup. So I say ok I'll just try and match them up by eye. I start looking and stumple on something that looks good. I decide to look in the book from a company called Plasti-Coat and look up under GM since they are in on the VX. in 99 GM has a color called Silver Grey Metallic #4816. Well I look at the bottle and behold it looks exactly like Astral Silver. I take it out to my truck open the back door. take off the tire cover and try a little spot too see if they match up. BAM it's a perfect match. So if anyone wants a small bottle of touchup paint without having to go to the dealer and wait. Drop by any Pep Boys go to the paint rack look up Gm 99-01 then look for your color VX using just the 3 numbers. For the Astral Silver it's GM #4816. The 1 draw back that I found was that Plast-Kote doesn't carry a color for the Proton. But I am sure that it could some how be matched up. If everybody wouldn't please post the paint codes for all the other colors so I can match them up.
Proton Yellow.
Ironman White.
Ebony Black.
Kiaser Silver.
Dragon Green.
Fox Fire Red Mica.
