    Hi there, I'm currently in the process of a restoration on a 365 GTB4 and trying to acquire a paint code for the interior.
    The part I'm talking about is the fiberglass flooring.
    Is anyone able to point me in the right direction for this? Was their a specific paint code used? Type of paint etc.
    I'm assuming it was some type of black?
    I've attached a photo of the inside.

    Any help would be super appreciated!

    Same flat black as used everywhere else, i.e. chassis/underside, engine bay, front & rear valance, upper door jambs, etc, etc, although on some cars most of the interior paint seem to have been somewhat haphazardly applied or just overspray, while on others more deliberately sprayed with better coverage.
    As far as I know, no specific OEM code exists, but IMO, most common "mistake"(?) is the use of semi-gloss black.

    Perfect! thank you very much.

    Do you have a paint code for this black used on the chassis and engine bay? I believe it is a type of matte black, not satin?
    Paint man seems to use PPG and Dulux paints.

    I do have a formula I created & use, but with all due respect, not willing to share.
    OTOH, if your painter or paint supplier has access to any, durable, flat black, it should be OK, but I would recommend a test spray before committing as it is a big job to get wrong.
    Also, for the sake of authenticity, as far as I’ve been able to determine, ALL the black-out areas were originally sprayed AFTER the main body color.
