Re: Dark Bronze paint

They were sprayed… I really like this color a lot. Hope to see some more examples of it.

Re: Dark Bronze paint

At most, dipping is done these days for galvanic protection. All vehicles are still sprayed, as far as I know, though the methods have changed.

Re: Dark Bronze paint

have had my dark bronze for 41 years. you can still see some metallic in the paint. I allways liked the color. but I use it as a truck so it has many blemishes. one year only I understand. it says white/ dark bronze 552 on the spid. BROWN 70

Re: Dark Bronze paint

Thanks for posting! Do you have any pics you could share of your truck? Not every day we get to see a dark bronze truck

Re: Dark Bronze paint

No problem. I noticed you had posted those pics in a thread where you had asked for assistance with posting images to the forum and hadn’t posted any others since. It’s always nice to see these trucks in the rarer colors.

Re: Dark Bronze paint

Thanks for sharing the pics! Much appreciated. There just aren’t many of this color out there! I like the gmc tan contrast on the dash - never saw that combo before either(!)
