You won't get a decent 'match' for Flake Sunrise Orange out of a simple code I'm afraid. It's a silver base with a candy top coat...

RS paints do sunrise metal flake orange. Re-spraying is the best option, I have also tried the touch-up, ok for very very small chips.
Paint codes are on the image.

Thanks but I'm after the flat orange not the flake orange.

I can order shiny orange for you if you like....
From what I know it's a simple 1 base colour without metallic.
And probably a clear coat on top.

My 550F is that colour. The Honda paint code is YR-26 I think. Was looking for a paint to cover some chips around filler. As Menno says it's a flat colour.. Think some Jap cars were painted a very similar colour.

There is no paint code that a paint man will recognise, these were made before Honda used standard codes
