General Lee / 69' Charger Tail-pan color:

[Captain D]

Hi all,

To ask please:

On the General Lees' and/or the factory 69' Charger tail-pans that were black, what was the most prominent - flat or satin black, just out of curiosity?

Also, which of the two (flat or satin black) actually looks better and any pics for good comparisons?

Thank you for your time and info.

The correct name for the tail panel paint is Organasol black... but PPG hot rod black is commonly used and looks factory to me.

The factory Organosol paint is a textured finish. Kind of like the texture you see on the painted dash parts, steering column, and argent painted parts. Dukes of Hazzard didn't use the factory Oganosol paint. They would rattle can them black to freshen up the worn factory paint. Often blasting right over the taillights in the process.
