Paint color

[james hobson]

Are there any spray can paints that match the 1958 jhonson bronze paint color I was thinking sometime back someone mentioned Lowe’s or maybe Walmart had a color that was real close ? Any tips appreciated

You can get an exact paint match at vintageoutboardpaint.com

I used Rustoleum Brick Red enamel on a ’58 Johnson some time ago.   More red than the factory Holiday Bronze but it was close enough for me – see pic.

Rustoleum also has “Universal Metallic” spray paint in Dark Cherry that is pretty close as well.

I use Dupli-Color BGM0521 Dark Toreador Met.   Not exact but I like.
