Paint Code - Tahitian Red
« on: March 06, 2011, 10:31:59 pm »
Hi Guys,

Got a 75 CR125 painted 74 colours and want to take it back to where it should be.  Anyone any ideas as to a colour that is close.  A Paint Code or something would be fantastic.  Thanks in advance  8)
Looking for YZ250C parts NOS if possible

The only triple jumps he would have been doing are the hop, skip & jump.

if you powdercoat Tony - then Dulux Signal red is near as close as you can get.

cheers

Painting over the green on top of the tank Rossco.  I was hoping for an exact match  ;)

if you go to bunnings and get one of those "fiddly bits" spraycans in 'Superman Red' you'll be right

GMH Venus Red is a pretty good match.

Thanks Red and Brad.  Seems to be a closely guarded secret.  I will give the GMH a go.

Mainline.......... bugger off  ;D ;D ;D

If those colours don't work ask for "Baboon's Arse", your local hardware should stock it.

I was trying to work out how you could get 74 different colours on to a CR125, be a bit like the flat tracker Firko liked on the other thread maybe. :D :D :D

The paint code for Tahitian Red is: R23, most automotive paint shops should have the formula.
Cheers,
