Default Another interior paint question

Thanks to all for the answers to my last question. Now, I need to know the proper shade of black paint for the glove box door; is it just gloss black?

More of a semi. It needs to match the dash cluster.

Can you recommend a brand or color code?

Default Trim Paint on a C2

Opinions will vary but the brand of paint and the color of paint that I and many of my friends who work on C2's use is SEM Trim Black.

It can also can be used for the engine compartment and the firewall (no paint on the blower motor box housing).

There are many threads here on the Forum about what type and what shade/color of paint to use for black trim pieces on a C2.
A search will reveal all. C.J.

Superior adhesion compared to other brands I've tried.
