Repainting should be a case of:
- Clean panel
- Flat down
- Primer (1, possibly 2 layers)
- Cherry paint
- Lacquer
I think?

I need to paint a few panels on the race car, where's the best place to get paint matched to the colour of the car? I can bring a panel along for them to match it if easier.Repainting should be a case of: - Clean panel - Flat down - Primer (1, possibly 2 layers) - Cherry paint - Lacquer I think? ________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |

are you spraying yourself? find a local paint shop or bodyshop and get it matched directly against an adjacent panel, if you use a part from another are they may well not match..... ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Going to give the spraying a go myself. I've got the space and most of the tools to do it so worth a shot.I've found a nearby paint shop so going to take one of the wing's there and ask them to paint match, seems to be the safest thing to do. ________________________________________ Rallye Race Car |
