Close paint match! (in red)
So my missus boiught a can of Rustoleum paint, "Cardinal Red"...bought it to spray paint some old skis for Chrissy Dec's.
Blimey, flippin dead match for my Red VTR paint work! tried some on a old piece of fairing and you can't even see where I sprayed!
Not that I'd paint my bike with it...oooerrr...but I used it to touch out a stone chip with a fine artists brush and it's a bang on match IMHO..
Worth knowing!

That's awesome, thanks for sharing. I know color matched paint from colorrite is pretty expensive. Just curious, where'd you buy it? Auto parts store, home depot?

Yeah, that is nice to know. As CC says, the exact label would be appreciated. I go into the auto parts store now and they interior paint, they got trim paint, they got rim paint, they got body paint, they got caliper paint, they got all kinds of paint.
