Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums General Petroliana Discussion Polly paint code.

Ok, ok. Another polly pump! Will the madness never end? I'm looking for a good green for the sides of my tall 39 tokheim. Paint code would very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Here are som examples that I have collected from Oldgas over the years - I did not find any when I used the search function - odd.
Polly Gas green:
-Dupont Fleet 43073 Signal Green
-Ditzler 45244 Green
-Dupont Chroma Base GS018K Green
-1960's Porsche Lime Green

What do you want, original or a nice color?

Looking for a bright green. However that may not be right color for it.I can look up the dupont formula's while at work. We have a dupont mixing bank. I could aways just mix up a custom color but I was wondering if there was a standard.

This is one of my favorites - copied the picture from Vintagegas.com (its been shown here several times before) it's not what you asked for but its nice

This is a great one too (from Oldgas album):

I own a wide body Wayne 60 and have been flopping back and forth trying to decide on colors. Now that I have seen one done in polly I think my mind is made up. I wont use that exact color green but will definately do some green and black combo. Looks great!!

I'm more into the second color. My den is dark and a brighter color would show up better. A polly wayne 60 would be very cool tucker.

Even though there are alot of Pumps restored in Polly every time I see one it makes me want to restore one in that Brand. I just love the Black and Bright Green color Combo!!!

Claes brought up a good point about searching on Shop Talk for past topics about a certain subject.

Lots of great information and pictures are available on previously posted topics on Shop Talk in past years. The trick is finding what you want.

In this case, put a + right before each word in the Search Terms box. Like this:

+polly +color

Then make all the Date Range boxes blank.
You'll get relevant results and lots of them.

To search:
* Click on "Search" on the menu bar above
* Click on the "Advanced" link
* On the Advanced Search Form, click on the forum you want to search from the list
* Type the words you want to search for in the "Keyword Search Terms" box (see tips below)
* Option: You may type in a Shop Talk member name in the "Display Name Search" box (spelling has to be perfect)
* Choose a Date Range. Recommended: Delete the 1 in the first "Newer than" box and select a blank space in the box that says "Week(s)" - Then enter a number and select "day, month or year" next to "Older Than" Or make all the date boxes blank to see everything
* Click "Submit"

By selecting one or two forums and some limits on the dates searched, you get results more quickly and more relevant. Example: Searching only in Showcase and only older than 1 year.
