Did a quick search, know it's here but need to get out the door. Anyone have the paint code for the white used on the iron man. Need to get some paint asap, but my paint guy doesn't work the weekends, thanks.

Not sure why Astral isn't in that chart...

I need to get some touch up paint for my VX. Do you guys think a paint shop could mix a small can? Or would calling Merlin be a better idea?

Probably specific for one year. I wonder if the codes changed over time.Originally Posted by vt_maverick

I had just that done and the painter didn't charge anything for about 250ml, but he did comment that a full Foxfire repaint would be very spendy.

No problem Bart, I get pints mixed all the time.

Bart, like Sue said, I just got three bottles of touch up paint from her and I am NOT going to use them all (just wanted them on hand for a rainy day). If you want one shoot me your address and I'll get it out to you.

True but the difference after ten years of fade is pretty substantial.once a paint code... always a paint code...

unless the sun has actually started to delaminate the clearcoat to the point of peeling/flaking, a quick buff/polish will bring that color right back....
Super VXer
I beg to differ. Paint pigments change over time due to a variety of effects including ultraviolet light, chemical reactions, degradation of pigments. Only some of these are mitigated by a clear coat. Getting paint to match and match over time is very difficult.unless the sun has actually started to delaminate the clearcoat to the point of peeling/flaking, a quick buff/polish will bring that color right back....

x 2...
When I had mine in the shop for some repairs, the Boss man at the body shop showed me the chip samples within the same paint code, that compensated for years of exposure to the elements (there were 30 or more)...needless to say, I was impressed with the level of care my Suzy was getting, & there is NO way I could have ever seen the difference between some of those shades of astral...
But he could...
At that point I realized why the name of the place is..."Fargo's Finest Auto Body"
