You can purchase the original "satin" black for the dash metal surfaces from any one of the Corvette Suppliers out there or you could use Rustoleum "Satin" black code #7777 oil enamel available ot most hardware or Lowes etc. stores in either quart or arisol cans. Clean surface well with solvant and mask before spraying then let dry a couple of days to make sure of curing. dt

Welcome abourd to our forum.

The only product I have had luck with is a product made from a company called SEM the products name is trim paint black # 39143
I bought it from the eastwood tent at corvettes of carlilse,I aslo purchased there self etching primer for clean metal.All of the other products I used I had problems with fish eyeing And I understand that oil causes fish eyeing but I used every solvent I could find and nothing was sticking.

Good luck
