They have different kinds of PPG paint. PPG in it self is a good brand of paint, just make sure that you get their best basecoat. Your painter will need to get color code off of a car with the color that you want then order it from the paint store with that code. Your local paint store should have a set of color chips that has the color on it if you can't get the color code. Good luck.

about to paint my car cyber gray metallic...my painter said its going to be ppg...how do they go about matching the color to a just released color (If they have the equipment, they get the paint code and put it in a computer and it then tells them the amounts of everything they need, by weight, and they add them as directed and then it's mixed)...will it be close or exactly the same as gm uses on the zr1? (It should be close, but there are usually at least a couple of factory variances.) around what price and quantity will be needed for a color change from black... (depends on if it's done right, ie. the door jams painted, engine, bay, etc..) just want to get some insight...thanks.
