Whipsiderry Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I have asked Caterham parts if they can supply Caterham yellow paint, they can, but at around £64 plus VAT for a litre of 2pk I thought this was a bit steep. My local paint supplier can mix some up by using colour charts but I am worried that it might not be a good match. Has anyone bought paint from CC and was it that much?

Area Representative bluenose Posted February 2, 2007 Area Representative Share Posted February 2, 2007 TSK paint Caterham's cars. Give them a call on 01322 441604, ask for Tony. Very friendly and I think very reasonably priced. Getting my car resprayed there this month Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative paul richards Posted February 2, 2007 Area Representative Share Posted February 2, 2007 Whipsiderry I spoke with TSK not long ago and as helpful as they are, they are not geared up to supply tins of paint other than via Caterham, although it may be different if you are close enough to be able to collect from them. As its Caterham Yellow you need, I sugest you do a search - there are details of the various 'recipes' for Caterham yellow as the topic has been covered in the past. Taking the recipe to a local paint shop should enable them to make it up exactly. Paul Richards Area Representative - L.A.D.S.

Wrightpayne Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I got this from a post some time ago, though not tried....... Ian The paint code for my Caterham yellow (2001 car) is ICI PO 30 99 72 Glasurit VWL 10 / 00W To close this thread & help anyone out who searches for it in the future, I have the Dupont receipe for Caterham Yellow, given to me by Tony at TSK. The receipe make 1 litres and is: AM44 649 g AM51 658 g AM7 668 g AM1 672.6 g AK100 1180.6 g The theory is that you can take this receipe to any spray shop who uses Dupont paint products and get a precise mix for caterham Yellow. I havnt tried this yet, so bear no responsibilty if it turns into a mucky grey!! For touching up - stone chips...etc Porsche 139 (Blutengelb) is damn close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whipsiderry Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share Posted February 3, 2007 Thanks for the helpful information chaps. My local paint supplier (AR Davies in Baldock Herts.) don’t sell Dupont paint but if anyone knows of a supplier in the area that does that would be great.
