Touch up paint for bikes?

[vifferman]

If your bike is still its original colour it may have a colour code stamped on a plate somewhere - maybe even alongside the VIN, possibly even in your owners book. Note down this number and contact your local dealer.

try ya local auto paint shop -they might be able to help

Yep, and yep.
If you have the code (mine's on a sticker under the seat), go to an auto paint supply place and they'll mix some up in a tin / touch up bottle or spraycan. Even if you don't have the code, they can probably match it.
Either that, or go to somewhere like Repco and guess at a colour.

Reminds me - I have to go to Smits and get some BeautifulBlue paint..

Well I went down to the local hobby shop (In Highbury), and grabbed some Tamiya black paint to touch up my farings... The guy behind the counter asked what model I was making... told him it was for my bike and why... turns out he's a biker too, his first comment was "I never ride anything under 1100cc's"

However, he did advise that I buy the other type of paint (can't remember the name now but can look at it again tonight and post the name tomorrow if anyone is keen) because the Tamiya paints come off very easy, anything like petrol, alcohol or damn near anything makes the Tamiya paint smudge and come off...

Tamiya only cost $4 and the one I brought cost $3.50, plus another $3 for a small fine paint brush...

I havn't applied the paint yet due to shitty weather, but when I do I'll let ya'll know how well it works
