I have been looking for spatter paint for my 67. Everywhere I look for spray can is not available. To top it off vendors dont know when it will become available. Anyone have a go-to place to get it? I think I am looking for gray white if I am not mistaken.

It would greatly help if you listed the vendors who don't have it in stock.

Fairfax. Don't take this wrong, but i have noticed that you dont provide helpful information usually. I see alot of your post that ask questions to someone elses questions. Not helpful at all.

Vendors meaning.... Camaros parts stores and some vendors who are on Amazon. You want a list.... see below.

Eastwood
Camaro Central
Heartbeat City
Classic Industries

list goes on and on
 
If you read CRG it is stated some are pleased with GM AC/Delco aerosol trunk spatter paint. SS396 and Amazon say they stock it. I had some not long ago. If you want it done correctly it should be sprayed with a schutz gun. I bought the paint in a quart from Bob at Camaro Specialties.
 
When I restored my trunk several years ago I used the rattle can product that NPD carried. At that time it seemed to be available through nearly all of the typical suppliers you have listed...It looks like NPD no longer has it available as with many others as well.
Speedway motors does still have it listed on their web site but with an estimated restock date of 7/24/24...
Duplicolor does also offer this product and the Duplicolor product line is carried at many of the regular auto parts suppliers like NAPA, O'Reilly, Autozone, Pep-Boys etc.
Might be worth checking your local places to see if they have some?
I used Black/Aqua color on mine with clear topcoat. Has held up very well for several years now.

Scott, thank you very much for the advice. I have a schutz gun in my tool box too. Probably have to go that route. I'd rather use a rattle can though. Easy to just throw away the can versus cleaning a gun.

I did just find that on amazon a supplier says that the paint will be available at same time Mr. Johnson. Several suppliers matter of fact.

Hate to wait that long as the back of my car is ready now to be assembled.

Thanks georgia68
 
Scot, I was going to try to help out by directing you to "Camaro Research Group", (camaros.org), for color selection and pattern because, IIRC, it depends on if the car was built in Van Nuys or Norwood. But, I couldn't find it.

I'm sure it's there somewhere...

There are three pages about spatter at crg. Use the search.

Thanks 69-er. I have been on there alot for lots of research. I see remnants of aqua/gray specs on my cocktail shakers. My car is Norwood built
 
I wanted to touch up a few spots in my trunk. I read good things about Guru paints, so gave it a try on some test pieces, not the car. It's all in the technique they say.

ThortonMuscleCars.com is where to buy this if this is the pattern you want. You have to buy the spreckle aqua and the dark gray base seperately.

It isn't easy achieving the results shown but can be done with practice. I don't recall ever seeing dots as splatter paint except at car shows today. I remember the originals looking closer to what I already have in my car currently and choose to simply apply coat of satin clear over the existing paint. Maybe LOS & NOR had different processes or is this a Fisher body thing?

My cocktail shakers are like that. Looks like spatter paint was slung on the surfaces.

Wherever that article is on CRG, I believe it says the Van Nuys cars were "slung" and the Norwood cars were "spattered".

My searches only point to forum topics not research articles. At the moment, the computer I am using will not let me access the forums.
 
You guys are mentioning trunk spatter paint, have had this for many years. The real original stuff. Paint within the can needs to get put into another can cause the pressurization is gone, Still liquid in there though, who know if its still any good.
