Default Rally wheel silver argent paint

Besides the catalog corvette places, do any of the discount or other auto places sell the silver argent paint for the rally wheels? Just trying to save time rather than order it.

Yes. AutoZone has it. I recently purchased a can. Perfect match for my other silver argent wheels. I was very surprised they had it. Alot cheaper also than the normal vendors. I have the can in my garage somewhere if you need the specific paint manuf., or paint number.

Patrick,
I also would like the part number please as it is quicker for me to go to AutoZone than sending away for it.
Thank you for this information,
Kurt

Although I would still like to see a part number, I went to autozone today and could not come up with an argent silver...they had a lot of different kinds of silver, but I couldnt come up with an argent silver. Guess I will be ordering it.

Sorry, for the delay in responding. Yes, it is Dupli-Color. It is not "paint", they call it "high performance wheel coating". It is silver, product # WP 101. Very new product according to Autozone. I applied it to my spare OEM steel wheel and it is very close to my other stock OEM wheels. Fast drying.

Want the real stuff?

Ditzler/PPG DDL 8586
DuPont 9692L

If you want to add a little green to the argent silver: Grass Green lacquer

Ditzler/PPG DE8586
DuPont 42153
R-M AT 114
