    Hello the clear white paint arrived this week and I have done a quick test. I have included some links to pictures:- https://www.flickr.com/photos/62674780@N06/16230053160/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/62674780@N06/16231230849/ OK, so we are looking at the inside of the original side panel, as the original battery sticker is over the white paint I am assuming this inside colour is original. I had this bike 3rd hand in 82, so 2 yeas old at the time, so I think this colour is original. I painted the bottom of the front mudguard, so you and I can compatre the two. I looks very good to me. paul

    OK I'll post back some results, after the weekend!!! I intend to look at the inside of the side pannels, as I dont think these have ever been painted since new!! If I can post pics I will, so you can judge for yourself. paul

  5. Hello does any one know the white colour code or paint name for my dt250mx 1980? UK, white with red/blue stripe tank. there should be a gray colour code sticker on the frame next to vin, but my one went a long time ago!!! I have had it many years from 82 and want to do my now second referb, the first was in 94'ish. I want to send the tank off for referbing, but I have never know what white paint to use. i think is ford diamond white at the mo!! Had a good search on the net and could not find anything specific, pure white or peal white maybe!!! thanks for looking paul
