I am looking through the TR restoration guide and the TRA Judging Guide and
find no mention of what type original paint is to be used for a restored
TR3A. I am thinking acrylic enamel or lacquer and no clear-coat finishes.
Can someone enlighten me as to what is original and if other more improved
paints are acceptable in a concours judging situation.
I find the colors and codes listed in the Moss catalog but can I be sure
this is the correct one for my black May 1958 car? Moss give an ICI code of
2224 while the French TR Registry give 0122. I called the ICI folks and
they tell me they no longer deal in automotive paints.
Thanks in advance,
Bill B
