Which white is the right white

I'm getting ready to blast and powder coat my rims. But, I need to know what the right color is. Does anyone know the color or how I can get a chip to give the paint guy? I am assuming the factory color for a '73 CJ-5 with 16"x5" rims is white as well.

Also, he is charging $50-$70 per rim to do the blasting and painting, does this sound fair?

Thanks

I only see a reference for road wheel paint starting in 1978.
Snow White - Ditzler 2265
hope this helps

 

not sure on price. blasting and powdercoating wheels (they were true spoke wheels off our 64 mgb) was $50 each. i would think painting should be less? also i'm in san diego wehre things tend to be costly.

 

The earlier wheels are more of a cream color, IIRC. "Snow White" sounds like more of a pure TiO2 white. Let me take a look at my wheels and see if I can match a less rusty one with a color chip from the paint store.

 

I brought four 15" x 10" wide, spoked wagon wheels, that I had already sandblasted, to a podwercoater, and he charged me $200.00 to powdercoat them white. So your price seems OK compared to what I paid.

 

I paid $200 to sandblast prime and paint 4, Wish I had got them powdercoated for that price.

 

I did see a reference somewhere of a creamy Ford Wimbeldon White, which I can still match. But I would like to know for sure. The powdercoat guy said it would be better for me to bring a chip to match to his suppliers rather than run codes.

By the way, he is located in Prattville, AL. He also does auto-resto work IIRC.
