GoonerChris Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 I'm hoping to build a Yamaha TZ250 kit for someone and not really having much luck finding any Petronas Green paint for the bodywork. I've only ever seen it as part of a decal for the Revell Mercedes F1 car. Does anyone know where I can find said colour, or do you know what the % composition may be from a number of paints and what colours they are? Any help would be appreciated as I haven't got a clue, plus this is my first attempt at bike building. Should be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmonk Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hi GoonerChris, Try Zero Paints from Hiro Boy as they do a very good range of colour matched paints for cars and bikes. Only downside is that you need an airbrush. Hope that helps. Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisrope Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Games Workshop/Citadel paints could be a good starting point. This green looks quite close and with some careful mixing could probably get even closer http://www.games-wor...Id=prod1500112a Chris Edited November 9, 2012 by chrisrope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoonerChris Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Chris, Warren, thank you. I don't have an airbrush so that's that idea gone unfortunately. I'll have another look in GW or on their website. It's a pain in the bum really considering that colour is quite prominent on the Mercedes F1 cars. I'll just keep on searching unless someone has a mega brainwave Thanks again guys. Appreciate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
