Hi, I want to paint the dash, glove box and heater on my 1953 series 2, does anyone know the best paint to use for this? There are a lot of "golds" available and I want to try to get the best match I can.
Thank you
Steve B

That is great thanks.
I am not sure how I get over the "collection only" stipulation though?
I have had other paints delivered, is there a reason why I would have to have s 400 mile round trip for this do you know?
As I say though, thanks for the contact details that is a huge help.
Cheers

Is there a colour code and a vehicle manufacturer as I live in Ireland and need at some stage to spray my dash

Hi, I will do, but I am not sure how will be able to tell, I have two dashes, both different shades. I think I know which one is the original one (it is dirtier and slightly darker) but I am hoping that the right shade is the one on the oeners club picture, that is a very nice dash and colour!!
I will let you know how I get on.
