FS: NOS Genuine Porsche quart cans of paint - vintage colors

[9seriesguy]

Unopened quart (liter?) cans of Glasso/Glassomax/Glasurit paint available in various colors (all the cans have the Glasurit name on the reverse side). The Glasso paint is Laquer and the Glassomax is Enamel. The paint is quite old, so obviously no guarantees, but if you shake the can, it is still liquid. That's about all I can say as to the usability of this paint. Pictured is Agablau, Vipergrun, Buschgrun & Bahiarot. If there's any interest in other colors or larger quantities of any 1 color, it's probably do-able. My source for this paint has *alot* of it. Let's start at $40 per quart + shipping.

I would go for Glasso #6405 if he has it.

I would go for a 6405 glassomax enamel.

Are you positive about which is enamel and which is Laquer ? I believe (?..from a quick try at some research) BOTH you've pictured are Laquer (Glasso & Glassomax).....the keyword i think is auto'lack'. If so, I do not know why the two variations on name.

Do you have silver metalic 5706A or 5706B in either ?

Also, do you have clear to go with the 'Glasurit' ? (i'm assuming this is two stage acrylic enamel ?). What colors do you have of the Glasurit marked type ?

Thx much

Anyone know when the switch from lacquer to acrylic was made by Porsche ? (the first acrylic used was two stage ?)...as you can see i'm no history buff on P-car paint . Other than that by 1974 , I would believe acrylic two stage was used ....at least on metalic colors.

Not meant to be negative - but isn't this paint past its shelf life? I don't know if I would want to go through the effort of painting my car, only to find out months later that the paint failed. I would suggest to have this paint checked out first.

Hopefully I am totally of base here.

Thanks for the inquires & questions. Here's what I know and what I can try to do;

- the can's pictured are all I have in my possession. I will make the 40 min. trip to where the rest of the paint is in about 1-2 weeks. I will bring a list of all the requests and try to fill them as best I can. I don't know what all is there and I don't know if there is any clear.

- all the cans have the Glasurit logo on the back. The cans that are Glasso say "lacquer" in the fine print on the can where it talks about thinning/reducing. Same goes for the Glassomax but it specifically calls the paint "enamel". Neither mentions the need for a clear topcoat. Both say the result is a "glossy" finish.

- these cans of paint are very old; probably 15 - 25 years would be my guess and they are not being stored in the best of conditions. They are in a storage room, but it is not temperature controlled. When I go to pick cans, I will only check for 2 things; I will shake the can to make sure it is still liquid and I will check it for any signs of leakage.

Obviously, I would like to sell what I have in hand. Keep PM'ing or emailing requests and I will get back to everyone once I have made the trip.

Glenn,
first - thank you for making this new old stock available to us.

It looks like this is Series 20.
For series 20 or Series 21, Tom Tweed is still hosting some paint sample color cards here:

Someplace on the web there was information or the BASF Glasurit site that talked about the thinner, solvents and reducers for these prior systems of paints.

I know a painter in Southern Minnesota who had access to years old stock and the paint did not diminish after years of shelf life in it's workability, finish or longevity. He was super enthused to use it. But, he still is old school.

I'm up for Irish Green for my 14-6 and a correct silver for my 67 912 which has a paint code of 97-96024-1. I believe the 97 is for a baked treatment. Gallon of each? Let me know availability.

Thanks
