Gulf paint colours?

[jimmyjam]

I saw a guy at LM this year who had painted his tatty push bike in Gulf colours (complete with step ladders...not in gulf colours!). Quite fancy doing this for next year. Anyone know the paint codes or closest to that I can buy in rattle cans?

I don't know about codes etc., but is there such a thing as "Gulf Colours"? Have seen plenty of variations down the years, surely it is just a case of picking a orange and blue that you like?

Reading the Kit Car mag it states in there that the orange is '045 Renault Orange' and the light blue is '051 Triumph Powder Blue'

My tatty push bike has been gulfed for 4 or 5 years (no step ladders though), can't remember the colours sorry, just had a look in Halfords and picked what looked closest. Mine could do with a re-spray, Gulf is getting terribly common these days, might try Silk Cut!

Silk Cut!

Which reminds me of the Silk Cut Volvo (240?) estate that used to frequent Le Mans a few years back.
