    I'm getting ready to have my wheel's sandblasted and powdercoated, but can't remember exactly what the white is called. It's not a pure white, just a little slighty "off white". Can any of you that has a 1956 vintage color chart handy tell me what it is? Seems like it was "glacier or glacial white", or "arctic white", or something close to that.

    Thanks!

    I think it was Glacier White. Not sure what year this chart is from, but I bet back then they were the same for a long time :)

    if memory serves me correctly their was only 2 colors of white for all autos, now what they called it may be different, but from a paint mixers stand point there were only 2 recipes. in 1969 chevrolet called the darker of the 2 cameo white. and it looks identical to the glaicer white in the color chart above. cant rember what they called the other but it would blind you if the sun was out
