C3 Pain Number? perhaps suggestion.

Hello and thanks for any constructive suggestions on this thread.
I have a 1977 Vette. It is in excellent shape.
My question deals with the exterior side posts (windshield sides)
and top part of the windshield frame that are painted black in color. I have
some minor scratches in the black color that I would like to repair. My
question is this......is there a paint number for this to duplicate?...Since
the original paint is 28 yrs old, was the black color
Hi -gloss?....semi-gloss?....satin?....

I think I can do this job myself as I am good with an airbrush (detail
my own radio controlled aircraft) and have used automotive
sprays....metallic etc...
I guess I just need a paint number if there is one... Thanks for
anyone that can help with this. Warmest regards and happy holidays...Jim

The major vette suppliers sell the correct paint for your window trim. It
comes in a spray bomb and is more than enough to do the job. If I remember
correctly it was a satin finish.
