I had decided to refresh the look of a motorcycle that I last restored 20 years ago. I had pained it a old Vauxhall colour (Spectral Blue) and while not an original colour for a Honda, I had liked it and after 20 years had become the 'bike's colour'. I bought paint from a alternative provider, using the paint code. That was clearly not Spectral Blue. I then tried Rapid Paints, again using the paint code. The colour is perfect and I really should have gone to them initially, as they had previously mixed a tin for a repair on my car and that was also spot on.
