I think i have asked this question once before, Does anyone know the paint code number and make for Halcyon Midas yellow for my T350c.
you might have read in an earlier post that a some tosser poured something onto my bonnet whilst my pride and joy was parked in our car park at work. Resulting in blisters to the paint.I have since taken the car to a local guy who sprays a lot of flip/pearlesant paints to mini's, and his verdict is though the damage is quite small, the car will have to have a complete front end respray, costing around £1500, but luckily i'm covered for malicious damage on my insurance, so I "only" have to pay the first £550
I have to say that i'm as angry about what has happened as if a member of my family had been mugged or something!!

Should also be in the handbook. Failing that call Gerbil at the factory.
I'd be seething too. Hope you get it sorted. Any CCTV cameras at work???

Hi Dave. Really sorry to hear that some low life scum has done that to your car. I hope that the damage can be repaired quickly and easily.

Gerbil's definitely your man to ask - the fountain of all knowledge on paint.

My Tamora is also Halcyon Midas pearl, and after an argument with a fast moving hubcap nearly 3 years ago a nose only respray (not bonnet) at the factory was £1400. Luckily paid for by the insurance company of the offending hire car from which the hubcap originated! The factory did a fantastic job with the respray. Your quote therefore seems good value.

Hi Julian, just found those numbers thanks, and have now spoken to gerbil, What a bloke!! He gave me so much info about the paint, I told him we were all coming back home this weekend, and asked him if he was going to be there?
I'm not allowed to type on here what he said, but in brief he was staying well out of the efin way from you nutters!!

Isn't it the same as Ford Daytona Yellow but with some sparkly bits in it?

No one would notice any mis-match....
