Touch-up paints

[johnnyj]

Hi folks. Kind of feel like I am monopolising the forum! Anyway...

Anyone have any recommendations for a decent UK supplier of touch up paint? There are lots of suppliers on Amazon, ebay etc but I would rather find one which comes recommended by a fellow enthusiast. Looking for CAD/Flamenco.

Thanks

John

Rimmers do it in aerosol:

or touch up

Not used them so no idea how good it is. I obtained Pendelican White from James Paddock previously but it does not look as if they do much in the way of paint now.

Thanks Alan. I did see the Rimmers paint, but I find RB a bit hit & miss, somehow. Some products are first class, others iffy. But perhaps I'll give their paint a try (although I am not keen on the £7 or so shipping!).

Agreed, I have found them variable too. Might be worth calling S&S or Robsport to see if they can supply (although paint is not on Robsports website).

Paint ages and as such changes colour, so better to have the colour matched to the car.
This side of the pond you can go to a (good quality) body shop, were they can scan the existing colour.
And with the original colour code they can fill a rattle can with the correct shade.

Not impressed with RB on paints. They sent me wrong colour twice and insisted I was wrong about paint code.
I found some NOS Halford touch up kits on fleabay which was a perfect match for my Tahiti blue TR8
