Trying to source some tartan red touch up paint to tidy up my restoration 'slips'. Does anyone know if such a thing is available?

Don't know who these guys are but their link would suggest they may be a good starting point.;);)

According to the Halfords ads on 'Dave' it is... or was that Flame Red?

I actually know the guy who runs the touch up paint business that Dave has mentioned, each paint is mixed to the the original colours specification and mixed for you so to speak.

When I had my A panels partially replaced the chap who did them for me got the paint from the them and the match is very good.

Though I am biased!

Hi I am restoring a MK2 S in snowberry white and purchased touch up paint both in aerosol and pot form at a very good price, great service and fast delivery. Just phoned them up with paint code and year of car and they knew what I need and it turned up a couple of days later!
