tyben Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hi i have a ty175 and am looking to re-spray some of the parts with the original white. I have rubbed them down and are ready but i'm not sure what colour white would look similar to the one there at the moment. Do you know which type of white paint i would need. Also the decal stickers that are on the bike (eg. 175cc) where can i buy these ? Thanks Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richty250e Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Hi Ben, For your decals have a look at http://classicbikedecals.co.uk/ or http://www.francetrialclassic.com/uk/famille/8/1.html Matching paint is a nightmare as the accuracy is in the eye of the beholder but take a look at some of the older landrover defender whites, they have some of the creamier shades which are similar to the TY warm white. regards Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinshocknut Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 i use ford diamond white commercial shade (more creamier) as for decals try Anglia Vinyl Art on ebay item 300311412546 good quality and easy to apply but would recomend you use clearcoat (lacquor) over the top of the tank ones as it stops them being worn away by your knees.
