And then my dash pad is a bit darker, from where I painted it charcoal.
Thanks for the info
Yeah it wouldn't make any sense why they would use 39183. The color coat works really well on the vinyl stuff. You can't scrape it off unless you really go at it with something hard.

Ive been buying my stuff from Route 66 Auto Color. They were the only ones that I could find that mixed the Color Coat. Their service is really good too. But yeah if you are just testing colors the aerosol is the way to go.

The 15393 is gonna be too light. The color chip will probably match what you have but its off. This stuff is weird, when it dries on the can its way darker than when you spray it. Its like SEM didn't spray the color for the chips but dipped them. That's what stinks because I can't touch up the areas I messed up. I'll have to respray that small area.

Let me know if you need any help/tips. I sprayed quite a bit of this stuff on the interior.
