Astril Blue is a lovely Mk2 colour. I don't know about nail varnish but I do know about BL Colours! It may be a match??!Al Williams wrote:Sam, the Porsche is the same colour as one of her nail varnishes.![]()
She showed it to me yesterday, but am reluctant to spray metallic...
Although I may have to admit defeat and just go for it, I mean, how badly wrong could it go?!
Colour change.

Don't know much about nail varnish and who makes it I'm afraid Sam!
Lagoon looks nice Ben! but I reckon it would show the blemishes very well!
I want something which hides the imperfections my car will have!

Hi Al, you will find that lighter colours will hide defects in body and paint finish much better than dark colours, if you were thinking of orange, how about Vermilion....a bit like Blaze only brighter, or if you fancy a lighter late colour how about Silk Green metallic, i think both of those colours were available when your car was built

Ken, Vermilion was the colour of my first Dolly, nice and I really do like it!
Sam, I think have just clinched the deal though with snot green!
Green.... What about that shade of green the Porsche 911 thingy was painted in Top Gear last night?
Sam can you do photo shop image's and change colours if I post a picture?
