Paint colours

[JC]

As it seems quite a few people are getting into this converting and building lark I thought it might be an idea to have a colour reference topic, maybe it will help a few of us along with getting a close match colour off the shelf for a particular brand.

If you've used a particular "off the shelf" colour to match up to a particular brand and you don't mind sharing it with others then please post it up here.

[fendt-man-matty]

ive just been through the whole topic and i couldn't find this.... what is the best colour in halfords for KANE trailer blue ???

[CJ]

All i know is kane use something similar to ford tractor blue what did you use for your other trailer 

[Tractorman810]

If its close to ford blue then i use halfords rover tahiti blue (non metallic one) for my fords so that might work

[fendt-man-matty]

my other trailer was fiat capri blue i think, but i just saw it on the garage shelf and used it but i might try what sean said for ford blue

[bremner_metallica]

dose anyone no a match for stuart trailers?
