Spray Paint

Hey Guys / Gals,

I have been doing a few searches on the forum concerning matching spray paint for my Molten Orange exterior color. I located this stuff based on another thread, but want to be sure there are not other alternatives.

It is for a 2014 Fiesta as it does not show that color for a 2016. (2016 shows Electric Spice Metallic)

I am looking to paint a few items I bought and want them to be close to the actual color of the car.

Thanks,

I've used this and it is a pretty close match. Mine ended up a bit more orange which I prefer anyway. I think it really depends on how heavy of a base you apply vs the 2nd coat. I would say do a few test panels to find the closest match. Also, this paint holds up very well if prepped properly. I painted my engine cover and the orange still looks like new, the black on the other hand didn't hold up so well. The black was what I had in the house, Valspar I believe.

Thanks for the reply...
