Larry Posted April 26, 2021 Report Posted April 26, 2021 My '90 J was built with light beige yokes that could use some minor touch-up. The caps on the horns are a slightly different color. Does anyone have a color to use for a paint match? It's not worth removing a yoke, were talking about a couple of chips. Thanks, Larry Quote
Hank Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 Almond is a popular interior color. Check for SEM paint at an auto paint store. Quote
RLCarter Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 If your just wanting to touch up a few chips see if a MSC or Mooney can get you the correct color and then see if you can match it Quote
Lance Link Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 I found a Rustoleum off white spray paint, kind of a French vanilla color at the hardware store that worked really well for this. Can’t see the touch ups. I don’t remember the name of the color. I just sprayed some in a paper cup and dabbed it on. Clean the spot with rubbing alcohol first. Quote
PT20J Posted April 27, 2021 Report Posted April 27, 2021 SEM Phantom White is very close match. Someone posted a while back that Mooney used Oyster white for the beige panels and yokes. They didn't post a paint brand and I don't know if it is a standard color across brands. If you are going to the trouble to remove them for painting, you might consider having them powder coated.

Larry Posted April 27, 2021 Author Report Posted April 27, 2021 Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check SEM and Rustoleum for a possible match. The touch-up is minor and plan to do it in situ, so anything I do will be with a brush. Thanks again! Quote
Larry Posted May 26, 2021 Author Report Posted May 26, 2021 Follow up. If anyone has a 90 era model and needs to touch up the yoke, try Rustoleum “Fossil” color. It looks as though it would be too dark, but it matched perfectly. Thanks again for the suggestions. 2 Quote
