Thread: Paint Codes

If you know the name of the paint colour - the paint shop should be able to look up the colour mix and mix it. I wanted to change the colour of my jag from black to signal red and I didn't know the paint code - the paint shop went to a book looked up jaguar, signal red and said there are two diffent mixes for that name - one from the early 60s and one from the early 70s - the one I wanted is from the 70s and he just used the code in the book to mix the colour - it was spot on.

So if Vintage Red is a proper name for a Range Rover colour you should be able to get the formula.

Is it on the build plate? I remember my 1971 Hillman Hunter had it on the plate as something like TAUB999 (Taubmans and a code number).

Its has on it, This Car has been Sprayed in Dulon Lacquer or Dulux enamel vintage red.
