Ok need to fit the correct color for the badges on my 66 Valiant. Who know the codes or the rustoleum colors to use??
Thanks.

I painted mine with international harvester red, same as the motor, and for the blue I just found some robins egg blue that was close. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker if it’s not exactly perfect, there’s no other blue on the car most of the time.

Off to the hobby shop or craft store.
 
I ran into that with my '66 too. I went to a hobby shop and ended up getting Caledor Sky color made by Citadel. Might not be factory correct, but, I like how it looks.
 
crazy no one can find a code or at least the names for those colors. The blue seems like the difficult one.
classic industries has a repro for $100 that looks good. I'm trying to find the manufacture to see if I can get the colors. Ill keep looking
 
I have not been able to find any definitive info on the paint for these badges.
And from what I’ve seen the blue on the front grill V is different from the trunk V on the ‘66 Valiants.
 
I painted the blue and I love it.
Not sure about the different colors with the front and back. May be the year. 65 when the 66 was made had the DT 8287 blue but not in 66?? But it looks great. I will get a pic up soon.
Also just had car painted and is so sweet
Pics soon.
