When Brancato resprayed my tank, he said the hardest job with the match was (something about) the depth of colour, and how it depended on the base it was being sprayed over. Sounded like a pile of S*** to me, but what do I know.

Having bought some paint for recently, for another non bike job, I can say that depending on the supplier, it can be a shade or half shade off. Enough to jump right out at ya. So, in my view, matching it up, it depends on what your plastics have been painted with in the first, second or third .... instance.

Rgds, Rob
