Thank you to all that replied. I ordered the paint from Waterford. 17 years ago I picked up my first Rivendell (Longlow) at there shop, they gave me a great tour so I thought I would patronize them. On Monday, February 29, 2016 at 12:28:15 AM UTC-6, Robert Husfield wrote: > > I just got a new-u

[RBW] Re: touch up paint

That sounds like a good plan, David. I was going to comment that $30 seems a bit much for touch up paint, but if the exact color/paint is available, then of course folks can buy it if they want. People trying to match colors, or looking for a color for a repaint, might try visiting an automoti

[RBW] Re: touch up paint

When I needed touch up paint for my sage green Brompton I wound up mixing my own using modeler's paint. It took a bit of trial and error but got it to match exactly. I think I bought bottles of three different colors and would up only needing two. Total spend was about $3. Maybe start with a

Waterford has exact paint to match, I believe. At least they did for my Hillborne (orange). You can check it out on their website. John On Tuesday, July 30, 2013 9:18:32 AM UTC-7, jki...@marathon-gold.com wrote: > > I've picked up a couple of deep gouges in the paint of my Toyo Hilsen - > the j

It's always hard to match exactly, but check the local drugstore for nail polish or maybe a hobby store for model paint. I always find that to be too much trouble, so I take it the other way and touch up with some contrasting color. Enhanced beausage. -- You received this message because you a

I have no specific suggestions, but if you take yourself to a decent model shop (you know planes, trains, automobiles), they should have an astounding collection of paint to match or do a little mixing with. Take your bike with you. On Nov 28, 12:52 pm, Boogarich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > The
