Paint Codes

Anyone any idea where I can compare paint codes with paints aerosols sold in the shop, need Aspen Silver RTC 6801A or RTC 6801T, the shop sells aerosols but the book as no ref for landrover ?

Here Vehicle Painting Pointers

look in the 'Metallic' bit under 'Land Rover Colour Tables' in the left hand collumn

take it to a proper paint suppliers , they have a spectrograph box of whichcraft thing.
only sure fire way of getting a good match. had the same problem with my purple freelander, it looked nothing like the tin, i had some mixed in the end and they put it in a tin. in blackpool there called martin browns not to sure if there a national or local firm , but they know there onions so to speak.

to be fair this is misleading.....as i have painted quite alot of those colours in my time and you have metallic paint listed under in the non metallic section.....ppg/deltron is crap paint as well........since they took over ici the service they use to supply as gone to the dogs.....i started off on ici and stayed with them for 20 years...glasurit is good even though they were onced linked to zyclon b poison the nazis used in ww2....at present i use sikkens which has its issues but alot better than ici / ppg

iirc most paint suppliers like brown brothers can make an aerosol up with any colour you want but its not as cheap as a ready made one etc...
to be fair it aint gonna look like the colour you want anyway
