Touch up paint
« on: April 07, 2009, 01:50:48 PM »
Does anyone have a source for touch up paint for my Hell Red tank. I believe the paint code is 050?

Two years ago, I had to repaint (blue) one of the side panels.  I was able to get a spray can of the paint from a BMW motorcycle dealer.

Don't know if they are still available from BMW or not, but here is the BMW part number for the touch-up 'pencil' paint code 050 : 51911240328.

Part number for an OEM spray can of paint code 050 : 51911240306.

Glasurit was the original supplier for paint, do a search, and see if you can source it locally in the UK.

Other than this, you may have to go to an automotive paint shop , and see if they can mix up an equivalent color, though cost is probably out of line with the amount of paint that you need.
