239882Anyone here work in a paint shop?
I'm tidying up my Kombi and the top is painted Pastel White L90D. I went to large paint shop in Penrose but they could not find the number. They said to find an equivalent number.....

May be a little old for him, but try Prem on 2777016 (otahuhu/hunters corner), he's pretty good with most stuff. Be worth a call.

Kickaha, Yes the tents are quite a hoot.

Just looked up the colour in Spies Hecker and it's available in 2K or Basecoat. Therefore also available in Standox!

L J Smits import Spies Hecker and have two shops in Auckland I believe, so you could try them.

Another option is to find a shop with a spectrophotometer, so they can find a formula close to your existing colour. We have one FFS, so they can't be that uncommon:laugh:
