Touch up paints - 2000 and 2003 silvers
« on: 28 May 2015, 02:22:06 pm »
I'm looking for some paint to clean up my bikes a bit.  I've found from searching the Yamaha codes (SM1 and S1), but was wondering if anyone has found any close matches in car paints (easier to get hold of and generally cheaper).

I get mine from RS Paints. Perfect match but not cheap.
I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

I bought this touch-up kit from 'Bikecolours' on ebay. A perfect match. £9.99 + £2.50 p&p, although that was several years ago so there may have been a price increase since then. I didn't even consider trying to find a close match in car paints because what appears to be a 'close match' before application nearly always stands out a mile once on the bike.
