We have entered into an agreement with Sherwin Williams Automotive Paints to private label the original Tonka colors and offer them to the restorer and hobbiest in an easy-to-use spraycan.  This automotive grade acrylic enamel paint has been professionally matched to original Tonkas and we currently offer 20 Tonka original colors! 

Additional colors are in the works and we welcome your suggestions for additional colors to offer.   If we don't have a color you need, please email us with your requests and we will consider adding it to our line.

We started offering Tonka paint in original Tonka colors 18 months ago and the reception to the line has been amazing.  We have had several customers buy a case of 12 cans in mixed colors and come back a month later for an additional case of 12.  Our proudest recommendation came from a customer who owns a paint and body shop and even though he has access to a professional spray gun and air compressor equipment, he prefers our original colors in a spraycan.  He raves about the ease of application and the fan pattern of the spray nozzle PLUS there is no wasted paint since the mixed paint with hardener has a short "pot life" and must be thrown out.  With a spraycan you use what you need and save the rest of the can for another restoration.

Over the past year we have had requests from many people asking "What color Rustoleum or Plasti-Kote is closest to my original Tonka color?"  Well, unfortunately the answer was "none."  We now can help you restore your Tonka to the exact color it came from the factory.

Additionally, many hobbiests do not have access to a spraygun or air compressor or have the expertise to use one and were reluctant to spend the $100 it takes to buy a quart of automotive grade paint plus reducer and hardener.  Now whether you are restoring your personal childhood Smith Miller or one you just acquired in an estate sale or on eBay, we have the solution.

Postal regulations prohibit the mailing of aerosol cans as hazardous materials and therefore we will be shipping the paint via UPS Ground to the lower 48 U.S. states and Canada only.  Since UPS rates are both weight and zone-driven, it is much more economical to order additional cans and colors at the same time.  For instance, one can to Boston might cost $11 to ship, however two cans would only cost about $11.50 and three cans $12.00.  Additionally UPS Ground is faster than the post office (1 day to Dallas, 2 days to Chicago, 3 days to Atlanta, Los Angeles or Washington D.C., 4 days to Boston or Seattle).  Canadian buyers MUST use PayPal!

Any additional Tonka parts ordered at the same time will be given combined shipping which is only 75 cents per item.

Bookmark this eBay store and visit often as we expand our inventory to carry a full line of quality reproduction Tonka and Smith Miller parts such as chrome grills / bumpers, headlights, chrome hubcaps, blackwall tires, “Tonka Toys” tailgates, tailgate chains, rivet tool, rivets, door handles for semi trailers, stake racks, tail lights, windshields, etc.  

We want to become your ONE-STOP-SOURCE for quality restoration parts!

PLEASE NOTE: We accept PayPal and we never have a "handling fee".  Our shipping costs are minimal to cover actual postage, packing material (bubble wrap, etc.) and a padded envelope.  We ship the same day PayPal notifies us you have paid.  Check our feedback for comments on fast and inexpensive shipping.

NOTE: WHETHER YOU ARE USING PAYPAL, MONEY ORDER OR PERSONAL CHECK, PLEASE GO THROUGH CHECKOUT BY HITTING THE "PAY NOW" BUTTON AND INDICATING THE MANNER OF PAYMENT.  ALWAYS HIT THE LINK "ASK SELLER FOR TOTAL" SO I CAN SEND YOU A COMBINED SHIPPING INVOICE SHOWING THE CORRECT UPS SHIPPING CHARGE. THANKS.

In response to several inquiries, I spoke with Sherwin Williams to confirm which primer is best to use with this paint and they indicate that any quality automotive grade primer will work.  I personally use Rust-Oleum Automobile Primer which is "Fast Drying and Wet Sandable" in a spraycan and it's readily available from Home Depot or Lowes or just about any hardware store such as Ace.  Sherwin Williams acknowledged that they would probably not use anything less than Rust-Oleum Automobile Primer.
