How to find Paint color Code
Re: How to find Paint color Code
I tried getting touch up paint for my 2005 yellow Roadster. Couldn't find anywhere. Went to the local PPG paint supplier who supplies all the body shops. PPG made the original paint for the cars. He just need the VIN and got the proper code from the dealer. Perfect match by the way. I also wanted the silver for the outside windshield frame, wheels etc. Couldn't get a code anywhere so he took a scan off the windshield frame. His computer said it was a PPG Honda colour and mixed it up. I did some tests and it is so close no one can tell. I will be airbrushing my stone chips on the windshield and doing the rim raspberries over the winter. Don't forget its basecoat/clearcoat. The base coat id water based and nice to work with, if you dont spray on clear sealer it wont last. The PPG guy fixed me up with everything i need including blending sponge sanders, polishing compound, surface cleaner, clear coat etc for under $100.. In believe in using the correct stuff. Just sayin.
