I have some 15" Rallys that I was considering having powder coated and was wondering what the proper color should be for a 1970 El Camino. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Dan,

The proper color should be Argent Silver. I have seen some "Wheel Vintique" reproduction wheels that they are powder coating. The silver they are using looks pretty close.

Unfortunately (to the best of my knowledge) you can't pick specific colors by name and formula when powder coating. You can only choose from what colors are available.

Get a sample of Argent Silver and see if your powder coat shop can match it.

A good guess wuold be a light Silver with just a touch of green?

Brian-thank you for the information on the color. I'm going to match it as close as they'll let me.
