Here goes - never had much luck posting pics before so touching wood

It works!!!!!!

Hi I have a 2 plus 2 in burgundy with a silver flake roof, I need to re paint the roof, do you know what the colour code or name is of the original silver roof ? Thanks Brian

think this is the Silver for the Elan Bumpers
6170 A 8020 (Pinchin Johnson)
as far as I can remember

so probably not what youre after..........

for the metaflake roof I think you may first need to find someone happy to do the work.....

The metal flake was embedded in the clear resin in the mold originally as i understand it. The are a number of posts here about respraying and the type of flake and respray technique to replicate the original if you can find them. I find its easier to search using google rather than the site search function

cheers
