Does anyone know 100 % what company makes the paint for a 2010 Grand Sport Vert car. The color is jetstream blue. Is it PPG, Sherman Williams etc. Thank You.

Well, that's interesting! I referenced the April 2011 issue. There is an article about the Bowling Green plant and on page 73, they discuss the painting process.

I didn't get April's yet. Do you have March's did you see pg. 73 but its on a 1967 so they probably changed. Sorry . I should get April's soon I hope. Thanks for the info my powder coater guy is looking to see if he can get it in JSB.
