paint match

[Peter Bourn]

Good afternoon everybody, 

                                                I was thinking about touching up the scratches on my Westfield but I don't know what colour it is.

Is there a number somewhere on the car? or does anyone know how to match the colour properly?

I think it's close to British Racing Green - but not quite.

Any help would be appreciated

The best solution is to go to a very good body shop that can scan your existing colour and give you a formula to match it, then contact a company (plenty on the web) who can manufacture and supply rattle cans in that colour, but ensure it’s paint suitable for going over gelcoat / GRP.

 

There are more than 16m colours available, with humans able to differentiate 10m+.  You do not want anything less than a match or it will annoy you every time you look at it.
