A Paint Question

[profstoff]

I would like to get some touch-up paint for the S. The colour was described when I bought it as "Juniper Green" and the body code is P422-P6606. Halfords could not find that code. I checked the paint code lists on here, Juniper Green is listed on one but with a paint code P159, the other list contains many P422-xxxx but not P6606. So I'm flummoxed! Can anyone out there help me identify what paint I should get?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

take another look at your code, juniper green is code PG60B, which looks similar to your code, it might not have been engraved that good on your plate.

I'll take another look but it definitely looks like P6606, although I admit that time has had its effect on the engraving. Would Juniper Green have had the P422 prefix?

Give Brown Brothers a call .. they have a unit up near Tesco's at Brooklands.

also try L.E. WENT in new malden, they are good with codes and recently made up some spray cans for me to do my seat backs

yes it would start p422 and as REV-EREND says brown brothers will be able to mix you some.

I've had so much trouble with my paint codes. My car is Rolex blue which turns out to be a BMW Amethyst but it doesn't match. Too much pink/purple in it to match my car. Think TVR must have adapted it slightly when mine was painted and now have no way of getting an exact match which is a right pain in the a**!

let me have model, year of car, body code and the last 4 digits of your chassis no and i will try and give you a formulation that your car was painted in.
