Can anyone help me out with the correct paint match for the bodywork on an s1 White Lightning?...e.g. Is there a match with a currently available car paint?..I know its called Ice White Pearl and i have some Sikkens paint codes but my local paint factors cant help.
Thanks guys.

All I can offer is the Sikkens information (in case anyone else is also searching for this):

Thanks for the reply but thats the same info i have...It seems any time you mention motorcycles to someone dealing with cars they don't want to know!..So i was hoping to find a car colour thats a match for the White Lightning.

Exspress paints will match any colour. I will let you know what they come up with as i to am painting my white lightning.i have brand new wheels that havent seen the light of day so the colour match should be spot on. Hopefully get it done sat morning

Good luck with that. I tried for months to get my spare tank repainted, but nobody could find any matching codes. In the end I gave it to a paint specialist who said that he could match the colour, but in the end he was unable to.
I know others managed to ( Pash ), but apparently its difficult to create the bubble effect.

The paint yellows quite quickly so although you can paint to the codes it will never look the same.

I think the plan to match the colour to the wheels was best

Thanks for info but it's the bodywork paint i'm trying to find..Its pearlescent..The wheels were a flat white colour.

My IWP re-painted tank looks greener to my eye than the other original body parts.

J&S Race Paint, tregarth, bangor, North Wales.
They matched mine perfectly and did all the decals, tank, fairing, and seat surround £350
Top job
