I was going to ask if you had ever seen them before but obviously you haven't

I have ordered from them before and they where spot on

paint match wasn't exact but old bike with faded paint is probably the reason!

The match wasn't really a problem as you couldn't tell that much

[Tango]

Yeah, I've used them before too......really good match to the original paint.......They used to have a stand at the BMF show in Peterborough, which is where I first found them I think....

Fun fact they're also the recommended paint on the Kawasaki website (which is how i heard about them!)

thanks for that but I went on there and they never listed a Yamaha virago 535 seemed like every other bike will take a side panel down to Halfords see if they can mix a match up

Our local auto paint supplier has a handy gizmo that scans the paint and gives them the 'recipe' to match it. I use them when trying to match classic cars, 40 year old paint doesn't match the original specification so they make it up by the tin for me. They ought to be able to mix some and put in a rattle can if you want it that way.

Ask your local independent bookshop where the nearest auto paint specialist is.

Yup - damn autocorrect on my tablet. When I was searching to match paint our local bodyshop gave me the address of their paint supplier. Brilliant guys. Last time I was in a chap came in with a panel off an old MGB that had been resprayed years back so there was no chance of matching the paint by the codes. They just scanned it with their hand held gizmo and mixed up the paint for him. The match is perfect.
