Feeling blue......
« on: 14 May 2015, 09:18:49 am »
Hi guys,
Does anybody know the name of the colour of the blue on the blue spot calipers on the 600? Or an equivalent to get a close match?
Thanks in advance.

It is, but I want to colour match it, and I dont want the hassle of taking a caliper off and taking it to a paint supplier to get it matched.
I was wondering if anybody had found any paint that was a similar colour.

I've got some airfix model enamel paint in by garage, but I can't remember the exact make and code. It's either Revell or Humbrol. I'll have a look later and let you know. It's a pretty good match I think...
