Is there a rep from Ford on this website?

Meagan -- I have a 2014 Fiesta ST with the optional Rado Grey rims. I have been trying to locate the paint code for the paint or finish on these rims (the Ford paint code or the equivalent PPG paint code). My dealer tried to track down this information with no luck but I'm hoping you might have better luck. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. If for some reason Ford does not want to release this information, I also went to an automotive paint store near me and we looked at some color swatches from the Ford wheel handbook and one Ford color "Argent" (2014 Ford Wheel XPQC, PPG Paint Code 301444) seemed like a close match. Can someone at Ford give me a rough equivalent or match for the Rado Grey rims? I am interested in mixing some touch up paint for my rims and getting some aftermarket rims I have ordered painted the same color.

Meagan -- Thanks for any help you can provide.

Steve -- Thanks for the feedback; that's what it's looking like after approaching my local Ford/Ford Racing/Roush dealer as well as a local automotive paint shop. I'm just wondering how Ford dealers or independent body shops would repair the Rado Grey rims in case of damage. Surely Ford must have some idea of what paint code is used to give this to repair shops or to have third-party suppliers supply paint for the assembly line. It's a bit strange given that all of the other brands I've owned (BMW, Dodge, MINI, Toyota, Honda, etc.) have this information readlily available and will even sell you touch up paint and clear laquer bottles at the dealership. Worst-case scenario I can bring the FiST to my local wheel shop and have them eye ball it but I really like the grey finish on the Rados and would like as close a match as possible.

Thanks Steve. Very strange but if Meagan is unsuccessful then that's what i'll have to do. Other posts have stated that Volvo Anthracite 932 is a fairly close match so I may try my local Volvo dealer.

Thanks Meagan!

Meagan -- Thanks for trying!

Steve -- I sent a message to the UK company and will let folks know when I hear back.

Just an update: Went to my local Volvo dealer and picked up a can of Volvo Anthracite 932 spray paint for wheels. This is evidently a fairly close match to the Rado Grey but I have not had a chance to try this. The paint in Volvo part no. 9437332 and went for about $20.

Yes, it's a good match.
