HELP NEEDED with color code 0605

Post by dinoverde »

I am picking the color for my 1970 fiat dino spider and i am trying to find out what the PPG code would be, if i chose the original metallic grey
Argento indianapolis met Lechler code 0605.
Has anyone chosen this color for a repaint? If so can you post pictures of the result as well as what brand paint and code you used?
An other reference that pops up on the net is Glassurit FIO605..unfortunately this does not seem to be crossed referenced in PPG..I am not even sure that FIO605 is anything like the code 605..
choosing the right color is a critical decision all your help is greatly appreciated..and your pictures welcomed..
Hervé
PS; my painter uses PPG and Spies Hacker as well...

Sorry I didn't see this sooner, I had mine done in grigio argento (a beautiful color) and had it made by a company in Milan. They sourced the correct code from the factory and I should have the composition somewhere, if you need it.

Good choice, post pictures!
