Default curvy blue paint help.

Ive got to get a couple of small jobs done on the bike, which main getting hold of some paint.

I know the paint code is Y2C candy blue, but does anyone know of a car paint that is qiute near to this colour, just that it's cheaper to get a can down halfords to do a touch-up (owwwh), than havin to buy a kit thats gonna cost around £45.

Anyone know of a close match??

Dunno where you're at, but Spectrum in Southport mixed mine up. It really cost next to nothing, and they can mix up small quantities.

how big a job you got to do??

I have some that I got from bandit mania.. its the yc2 and then lacquer ..

touched up stone chips etc on mine no prob- just buffed it up with a compund before lacquering and its fine

is it small chips??.

I can post it to you if you want and then just post it back - thats what this forum is all about

it is just two small touch up brush tubes- lipstick size so only for small ish pings and chips.
