This question has been asked before in this thread... http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=423532&hw .

I bought some touching-in paint in Olympic Blue from "paints4u.co.uk". My owners handbook says the colour code is P195, The plate in my engine bay says P422 ~ PP61.

I can look at the reference number of the paint I bought from paints4u tomorrow - that may help if you want to buy from them.

Andrew.

The P422 bit of the code means it's an ICI paint so it's the second bit that's important.
