johnjsy Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 10 minutes ago, feetupfun said: https://trials.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5545 I have an old Sammy Miller catalogue which says Ford sunburst red. I would think that any car paint supplier could mix this for you. For silver grey Ford silver fox is decent match as well. I have used both, quite happy with the result. Hope this helps............

paulmac Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Just in case you weren’t aware, the Bultaco factory mixed paint ‘by eye’ which means that in terms of RAL or any other colour measurement system ‘spot on’ is but a whimsical notion. ? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorenzo Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Tsk, tsk, Old man - far too touchy. You came here seeking advice - which was freely given. Everyone in this free world is entitled to his own opinion. No need to go off the deep end........

Keeps you on your toes though doesn’t it.....discussion and such like? Seriously hope that your physical pain abates enough for you to enjoy your Bultaco....mine (Bultaco that is) has helped me through some real issues.

scot taco Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Hugh,s Bultaco has PPG paint codes listed on their website and the Grabber blue that we used on my brothers 199A looks pretty good. The PPG code they have for Bultaco red is Torch Red DAR 74013. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
