can anyone out there tell me what the colour code is or the best match for my frame on a ty250 genuine colour its 1978 model so i can get my local paint shop to paint it for me thanks

Hi,

have another question regarding paint and hope the purists don't wretch at this but.......painted my TY250 purple and yelllow.

The purple is a (beautiful???) Halfords metallic but I can't seem to find a decent lacquer that'll take to it (and not bubble up the paint) AND remain fuel proof. Anyone got any recommendations ?

I am probably going to regret saying this but I touched up the paintwork on my TY175 with Hammerite smooth silver spray paint.I changed the can nozzle for one from a car body spray can which gives a wide spray fan and sprayed it down the frame with the narrow part of the fan,it blended in with the original paint spot on, and it has a very good finish.

Now shoot me down.

hamerrite mmmm nice !!!

There was only one 'R' in the hammerite I used,you must be thinking of another type.Dont forget to get the smooth type because the Hammer type will not look good.
