touch up paint
 
Fitted aftermarket reverse sensors on the tourer and i want to colour code, I went to the local factors and they only list older range colours, went to halfords who advertise 40,000 different colours that can be mixed and they dont have it on computer. If it was monogram i could understand it but it is Royal Blue!

Is that Royal Blue Pearl JFM, you should be able to get a touch up pen from Rimmers, that would be sufficient for the job.

sworks 14th July 2007 20:46

Yep thats the one, i want an aerosol and thought it would be easy to get. I can order one from xpart on Monday but i thought i could have got it finnished bsfore then

paints4u.com do a good range and good service.
I managed to get moody blue monogram a big aerosol for £14 posted.
Ive just used it today to touch up some stonechips and its a perfect match :lol:

Hi,
You have the same colour I have and I got some mixed at Halfords, no problem. They may say they haven't got the code (JFM) and if they searched under Rover thats correct because its listed under (wait for it!!) BMC. HTH's

Thanks for the info, was it a good match from Halfords?

I got my touch up pencil (a while ago now I grant you) from my local ex-MGR dealer no problem.

Jontie 19th July 2007 22:00

Hi Sworks,
Yes, it was(is) a good match, I have a scuff mark on my front bumper now, so I'm thinking of getting some more but in an aerosol. You do have the choice, its around £8 for the tin and £11 for the aerosol I think.

Regards

John

Last time I got the Genuine Paint through XPart, it was cheaper.
Normally get in Next Day or Max of 2 Days, if not in stock at branch.

I popped into their local branch by me, and said I wanted to do some touch up work on a few scratches and car park wounds. The chap came out to my car and took a few details from the good old plate at the base of the passenger side pillar, and within ten minutes I was on my way home with a freshly mixed can.
I paid £20.06 for Primer (300ml), Lacquer(300ml) and a 400ml paint match.

If P+P is not justified, let me know and I will have a bash at trying to get some sort of deal going for this fine example of a club.

Strangely the manager drives a Racing green Conn SE, said he would browse the Forums when he gets a minute. I will be dropping in again when I go for other paint and worshop equipment.
