RE: [Chrysler300] 300H Air Cleaner Paint Color and Replacement Fuel Lines

["JOHN MC ADAMS" <clafong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Since I am afflicted with the dreaded color perception challenged gene, I cannot advise you as to John Cote's color info versus the Plastic-Kote color.  But I recently painted some of my air cleaners with the Plastic-Kote spray cans and they look fine as far as I can tell.

It seems that every couple of years or so, Plasti-Kote changes their part numbers for their colors.  The last time I needed some #452 they said that it had been discontinued and replaced by #19100 Gold.  It is an Acrylic Enamel in the Metallics section.  It was very hard to find.  I finally had to contact Plastic-Kote customer service directly, (I don't remember who) and sent them a check.

I sprayed it very lightly a couple of coats until it was completely coated.  It ends up the bright gold but sort of a flat, semi-gloss finish.  Then after it dries overnight, spray it with VERY light coats of gloss-clear and it REALLY brings out the metallic particles in it.  Careful, it runs real easy.  Then you get to start all over.  Trust me.

Lines


I am in the process of repainting my air cleaners and need to know if the
300H color is the same as the recent color information posted for the C300
by John Cote or Plasticoat #452 recommended by Johan Vastsater. I also am
replacing my fuel lines from the fuel pump to the filter, filter to front
carb and front carb to rear carb. The three places that I contacted that are
listed in Hemmings do not stock these lines, but will make them up if I send
in my originals which I would prefer not to do. Does anyone know of another
source?            Doug Warrener, Sacramento, 300H
