Default Touch Up Paint

Im having a tough time sourcing touch up paints. Am in Australia and most suppliers like ColoRite and another in UK and Germany wont post their goods to Australia. And I cant find anyone in oz who may specialise in Honda touch up for bikes.

This is what I need;


Pearl Crystal White NH193P (if ColoRite required base 1085(touch up stick) )

Ross White NH196 (touch up stick)

Nordic Blue PB-220 (touch up stick)

Fog Grey Mettalic NH-264M (2 x Spray Can)

and a Gloss over the top. (touch up stick)

Any suggestions? maybe someone in the states might help out then forwarding them to me? Any help appreciated. Thx.

I don't have the color specifications and formulations for those, but was able to get for the Zeus silver and Medium Gray - let me see what I can do........
If you can get the paint code you can do it anywhere with a color mixing desk.
Any decent paint shop has one of those

Volvi - I hope you haven't put a mark on that pristine bike of yours! ... Or are you just testing fate?

haha no not a mark, just has a few stone chip spots to take care of, then I can put it back into the showroom where it belongs. Thx shadow and demon corresponding in PM.

Martin perhaps next weekend if its dry.


PS. Yayyy only 81 more posts to go before I can advertise in the for sale section all those great CBR parts that many no doubt are dying for but will just have to wait, looks like a few years by my post count lol. Sorry but silly rule. On my board if it benefits members I allow it even on first post.

What you do on your board is up to you.....
We have had problems with new members posting parts for sale and the payments were made but parts never arrived. It was decided for the safety of members to institute a 100 post minimum before allowing classified ads, to allow everyone to get to know the new members. Unfortunately the innocent have to suffer for the guilty few..........

I do remember some bike shops a few years ago using tamiya hobby paint. Huge range of colours.

An interesting comment from someone in your line of work Pete.

Please feel free to take the opportunity to rephrase that.

Nope - stands as stated. No incongruity there as far as I can see.
Fact is it's not the majority that cause problems on a site like this,(or the real world) it's a small number of cretins who believe that the rules don't apply to them, and they can behave in an unreasonable fashion, be it fraud or outside the norms set for civilised society. They cause the majority to be burdened with rules to protect them.

This is now way off the subject, soooooo

Tamiya model paint could be an answer for small areas of damage. I intend to look into that. Humbrol also made paint as I recall - huge range.
