  Does anyone have the PPG codes for Benton Gray Met. The shop that is refinishing my dash and garnish moldings is a PPG client, but can't order through the TPC Global division. Thank you for any help you can provide.

  Ken,

Thank you. I have the book, and along with the shop, have confirmed the Benton Gray Met color.

  thirty6,

I will pass this on to the painter. This should keep him from having to repeat what your shop has already done.

Thanks for sharing,

Jim
