    I am looking to match my paint, does anyone know what brand of Paint Country Coach used in 1992?

    I'm not sure 'matching' is necessary or smart. With the significant age of your coach there's going to be lots of different shading. A better approach would simply let a good paint shop match what you have and mix up some paint for you. A very common process for any good paint shop.

    Yes, I know. I still am interested in the brand they used in 1992.

    Ok so i am getting close here to figuring out my Bus paint. From what i have found out my Bus was painted at Prevost with Indian Silver Metallic then sent to Country Coach for the rest of the paint. Harbor Freight has a 9.99 spray gun i am going to purchase to run some tests. I have some areas along the roofline i am going to reshoot then the clearcoat.

    Anxious to hear how you do this and how it goes. I am not a painter but I also have paint issues on the roof that need to be taken care of.

    Today my prep work has started. Since I have to touch up the back wall, i am removing the roof coating back away so it can't be seen from the ground. I am not a fan of seeing the white roof coating at ground level
