Another common paint color promotional name is Scotch Green. The color formulation has been used between 1962 and 1963, primarily by Ford; but also by Mercury, Lincoln.

The short make/year code for this paint on a 7968 in 1962, is P. The code P is unique to this paint color formulation for this year; therefore, the code can be used along with the manufacturer and year to specify the paint. For example: "P 1962 Ford". The longer Ford paint manufacturing code is M1454 or M1454A. Ford production paint codes starting with M are usually followed by a 4 digit number and the letter "A" indicating its an exterior paint. For example, the same code ending in the letter "G" is common for accent paints. These longer manufacturing codes are useful for tracking paint usage.
