Default Touch up paint

Anyone used non genuine Suzuki touch up paint?
Seen a couple of companies on ebay selling Suzuki colours and wondered if they matched ok.
Have got 1 stone chip on my tank and was quoted about £25 to send one to me from my nearest dealer.

I don't have direct experience of them, but Banditmania lists touchup paint for SVs – they might be worth a try? I seem to remember them being a lot less than £25, too!

I would say 8/10, but for £10 guess unless you are going to spray paint, can't expecgt perfect.

My bikes 9 years old now so I suppose the paint has slighty faded on the bike now anyway.

Thats the one, can only say for the yellow, even though I gave them the paint code, the match was not good, to bright a yellow, the pearl lively seems to be more of a dark colour .... all sounds a bit weird, you have to see it.
