I have used this paint. Gr.8.800 Part # 105010 is listed on a gallon can that
I have, I spilled some paint over the end of the number so there may be one
more number on the end of 105010. (?) By checking with a Chev. Parts man on
Gr.8.800 they should come up with it.  This paint will disolve with gas when
it is freshly painted but gets very stable when heated a few times. May be
applied to clean bare metal. Will be nearly flat black. It may be brought to a
very high luster with rubbing with a cloth such as a bath towel. I painted the
inside of my 63 Rampside bed with two heavy coats. I later rubbed it out with
rubbing compound and it looks like 20 coats of black lacquer, a very high
gloss. The beauty of this paint it is very easy to touch up and very easy to
apply.
