JPS black paint code

JPS.......Since the paint on your car looks like pool of 1/4" thick flowing glass, why don't you just use your thumb and gently just push that beautiful flowing black liquid glass over on the chip and let it level itself out ?.............Bruce

OOPS...........Different person.  Sorry Ekimsurfer........I thought your were JNC.....

I hope you find the paint code.  From Mr Jekel/Hyde ??  I doubt it too..........Bruce

Ekimsurfer, If you can, take the car or something on the car with the same paint to an auto paint supply store. They have a machine that can read a sample of your paint and retrieve the paint code for your car. I think it's called a spectrophotometer. If your paint is newer and in good shape, they can get pretty close to the original color code. Here's more info.

Just to add, black paint and white are some of the most difficult colors to match. So are candy colors and pearls, but you don't have those. Good luck.

Thanks guys.  I actually had a guy come out, he "matched the paint" but ended up have specks of gold in it and I have a flat black. 

I got this back from JPS. 

"We use straight Black Limco 2 stage paint. It is the Euro black". 

Maybe that will help someone looking for the same thing.

FWIW, if your paint is more than 3-4 years old, you’re better off getting a paint supply store to read and match it. Using JPS’ original paint may or may not be a perfect match for your paint that’s been off gassing and sitting in the sun (however briefly) for all this time.

Unless planning on painting the whole car that is.
