Ford Dynasty Green Poly. (D (1964)) Touch Up Paint

The Look

This color captures the very moment the pony car was born. As one of the marquee shades for the launch of the 1964 Mustang and the 1964 Falcon, it represents a mid-century pivot toward jewel-toned, vibrant metallics. It sits in that sophisticated space between a forest green and a deep turquoise. Because your vehicle has likely spent decades under the sun, the original finish may have faded into a more muted, silvery teal. A fresh application will bring back that rich, saturated depth that made these cars stand out in a parking lot full of white and beige.

Technical Details

The "Poly" in the name stands for polychromatic, which is the vintage term for a metallic finish. This means the paint is loaded with fine metallic flakes that catch the light to create depth. These flakes are heavy and have a habit of settling at the bottom of the container. If you do not maintain a consistent spray distance, the flakes can cluster together, creating a blotchy or "mottled" appearance. This is why the movement of your hand is more important than the amount of paint you apply; you want those tiny particles to lay flat and uniform rather than pooling in one spot.

Best Practices

Locate your data plate on the driver-side door jamb to confirm your paint match. Before you spray or dab Ford Dynasty Green Poly. (check for code D (1964)), you need to shake the container for at least a full minute. This ensures the metallic flakes are suspended evenly in the liquid. Work in your garage or a patch of shade to keep the metal surface from getting too hot, which can cause the paint to dry before it levels out. Always test the color on the included card before you touch the actual bodywork. When you begin, keep the container moving at all times to ensure an even flow. Allow plenty of drying time between your light layers to prevent the heavy metallic pigments from sagging.
