Hi,

I am trying to find a company called bike paint. I have found Bike-Paint.co.uk but after a quick phone call it would appear these aren't the droids i am looking for. Story is i have just got hold of a single seat cover but it is the wrong colour. My bike has a custom paint job Cadbury boost colours done by the previous owner. One of the Stickers on the bike says Bike paint and i assume these are the guys who did the paint job i want to get hold of them so i can match the colour for my seat cover.

Any help email or phone numbers would be greatfully recieved as it would be a shame to fook it up by getting the wrong one.

Cheers

Any paint factors can get your colour match as they scan it in the computer. costs £20 though, but if you get it done with a paint job it might be free!!. (did with me anyway)

Try looking around on the back of some of the fairings or under your seat for a paint code as most companies doing a whole respray will put one somewhere incase they need to repair it again.

It's not RS bike paint is it? that's in Barnsley though and they only sell paint.

The guy who did mine was Joe Henderson from Bike koat in Eccles, Manchester.

Hi! There used to be a firm called Bike Paints (Note the plural) somewhere around Brechin (Scotland. The Boss was called Ally and their work graced just about every racer at Knockhill circuit; it was GOOD stuff. A trawl on the web, or a call to Shirlaws Motorcycles in Aberdeen ( 01224 584855) might get you the answer. Sorry I can't be more specific, I've been out of the trade for a long time. Cheers. lest

And their quality is absolute crap these days.

They've gone too big and turned nastily commercial in their philosophy - "once you've paid we don't give a f**k!"
