Re: Touch uip paint

First thing to do is find out the paint code, which can be done by reading the chassis number (assuming it's the original colour of course).
There's a site here which goes some way towards finding that out.
OH, sorry i don't know where to get the paint, presumably Halfords etc don't have it?

I wouldn't go to halfords for paint if you had a gun to my head. It's a bit like going to burger king for a gourmet meal you just wouldn't do it! emoticon

To be honest you should use halfords as a last resort for just about everything as they stock nothing. Support you local motorfactors, they know what they are selling and you can actually ask them a question without them looking at you as though you have just asked them to explain what a quark is.

I've used C&C Car Colours of Crawley for the paint for my Sirens. 01293 612226. There's probably a nearer place to you. Find someone on Yell looking under Paint, Varnish & Lacquer. Give them a call and sound them out. That's how I found C&C. If you like how they sound and they appear to know what they are talking about go with them, if not move onto the next listing.

Good luck. emoticon
