I'm trying to source some Ocean Haze paint. This colour doesn't feature in the paint code threads on the General TVR forum.

My local paint supplier can't help despite my providing a paint code from a touch up pot I obtained from the previous owner of the car, this code being - P422-2RF3B. According to the paint supplier this code doesn't exist!

They've said if I can provide the car manufacturer of the paint then this would help - I recall some suggestion of it being a BL or Rover colour?

Can anyone help?

A good bodyshop useually has their own paint mixing equipment and should be able to mix it for you .

We have an Ocean Haze Griff which had some body repairs done in a garage in France. As metioned above, they had equipment that could analyse the colour and mix the correct paint. It was perfect, even where only part of a panel had been resprayed you could not see the difference.
