Default Firefrost touch up

Hiya all, anyone any ideas of the best place to obtain touch up pens for Firefrost? Rimmers have them but it costs more to post them than the things cost to buy.
Cheers, Dave

Humberside paints in Scunthorpe, the best paint I have used, well worth a trip seeing as you are close.

They will make up an aerosol, or a touch up for you.

Thanks Trikey, will it be a good match and do they do it while you wait?

Yes and yes 👍

I have never had an issue with their paint matching, this is why I still use them even though I’m 150 miles away.

Calvers Paint In Great Yarmouth (opposite the Black Swan, next to the Desira Garage) have served me well for matching old bikes, cars etc., even some of the early Honda super sparkly "Candy" red stuff for my 10 year anniversary Limited Edition CB750 - spot on match. May be a bit nearer for you now Andy.
