Default Need to Find 80 Doeskin for Metal

Can I use my interrior dye for the metal steering column or do I need a paint specifically for metal? If a paint other than dye...has anyone found a close match to 80 doeskin?

Thanks...

You can use the dye on the steering column. It won't have the durability of an enamel or urethane but it shouldn't get alot of abuse. I use it on columns all the time.

Or you can get a paint supplier to mix you a batch from a color sample.
