Jetset Metallic Blue paint Clones?

Anyone have any luck with a store bought aerosol to match Jetset Metallic Blue code #492 on a 1973 CJ5?

 

You can get spray cans made to your color. Hre's one source: http://www.autopaintdirect.com/

Your local auto body paint store can probably make spray cans for you too. Not cheap, but it will match as best as a single-stage paint can.

 

A google search for 492 jet set blue took me here: http://www.paintscratch.com/touch_up_paint/Jeep/1974-Jeep-All-Models-Jetset-Blue-Poly-492.html

As Tim said, it's a little pricey. My 73 I believe is the same color, and I may at least get a touchup pen from paintscratch.com to fix small spots.

 

Thanks Guys. Appreciate the help.

 

steve... can you post a full size pic of your jeep..

my 73 cj6 was originally jetset blue...
been hard pressed to find some good pics of a jetset blue rig..

thanks

 

I'll try to post some of mine in a couple weeks. I ordered a paint pen of jetset blue from Paintscratch.com, and it matches perfectly. On their site, the color shows up under the 74 cj5 colors, and there's only a green for 73 showing. So, now I've ordered some paint from them to fix my right rear fender.

 

Whats the secret to posting a larger pic?

 

Anybody have a good example of Jetset blue?

 

As far as I know, my 73 is that color. It has been repainted (assuming with the same color) about 20 years ago. It's been barn kept. I hope to get some pictures soon outside because (fingers crossed) my clutch and transmission are hopefully put back in correctly.

 

Off the subject, but what kind of side steps are those? Do they mount to the body or the frame?

 

Those are Carr hoops. They mount to the body. I can get in and out fine without them, but I wanted my Dad to be able to get in his old Jeep. I didn't want the nerf bars that I had to drill in the frame, and I didn't want sliders that mounted to the rockers. IMO, those mount too high to use as a step. These work best for me since I wont be going anywhere to hang them on anything. If I did, pulling a few bolts gets them off in a few minutes. My floor pans and hat channels are not in perfect shape, so I'll figure on some repair in the future anyway.
