Need "RM" White Lacquer

[Joe S.]

Long story but I need a quart or gallon of white (any shade) RM (manufactuer) Lacquer for some touch-up work.

If anyone has some lying around or knows where I could get a can, please drop me a note.

Thanks much,

Joe..

RM was absorbed by "Inmont" you might search under that name.

actually RM-Inmont is owned by BASF.
Do Not use 2080 white lacquer. You will find it way to creamy or yellow for your application. You need the more pure white used for Corvette and the trucks.
If you have aged lacquer on the car now just go by the code or have a paint Jobber (supplier) match it up for you. I would not trust anything that was in a can that long. All the binders have long since gone past their useful dated or shelf life. The pigments will be like a rock and not hold true color anyway. Find a state where they can still sell lacquer and have them mix you a qt. With safety clips on the can you can ship it. If you use an old unstable product you have no idea what you will end up with. Here today...crazed tomorrow.
