Does anybody know where to buy colour matched paint from? I've tried halfrauds but they don't sell any pre mixed. Don't fancy the cost of mixing it bespoke...
Thanks |

A question along the same lines.
Do Suzuki sell their own touchup paint? The stuff i got from bike-paints.co.uk Is nort very close at all really. Maybe i was just expected too much. ![]() |

RS paint are spot on but expensive. Paint for my fairing lowers and seat cowl was over £100 for 500ml. I did all the prep to keep costs down but had a pro spray it for me - 2 coats of primer, base, colour and laquer. That was another £100 but it looks the DBs and matches perfectly.

You could find your local auto painter centre as they will almost certainly have a Suzuki paint 'chip' for their mixer. This is where my re-spray shop got a superb match from.

most bike based sprayers should be able to give you a touch up pot

Ty for the suggestions.
Ill take a photo tomorrow so you can judge yourself, it looks 10x better than before still. That p38 filler is great. I just wish the colour was a tad lighter. I quite liked the prep and painting, i have stolen my friends old tank to, practise on, its a complete mess ![]() |
