Hi can some of you guys tell me what the correct firewall black is for my 69 Chevelle? Also where can I get it please. I am not sure if it is the "underhood black" from eastwood. Thanks you!!

Randall,
I always use Eastwoods under hood black. I get it by quart and mix it 50/50 with laquer thinner. It always makes a great finish.

I have used Eastwood Underhood Black until I discovered that Duplicolors' Semi-Flat Black is a dead Ringer for it at much less cost.

I bought the Duplicolor paint over the weekend and IT IS a great match!! I had some trouble locating it so I called the Duplicoor tech line and was told that the paint is #1613 and is sold through several places under the Krylon brand name. I bought mine at Wally Mart. Thanks to all of you guys that answered my question, it really helps us guys that are getting back in to the car scene. Randy
