550 Super Sport Shiny Orange
« on: July 11, 2020, 12:34:00 PM »
Is the CB550 Super Sport orange, a candy paint - a friend is painting his, so asking for him?

Thanks, Andrew

It's not going to be a standard bike and he's considering his paint options at the moment, but RAL2005 looks close enough.

I’m about to paint my side panels in the Ford pearlescent orange the Focus RS is painted in.

If it’s any good I’ll do the tank in it.

P3. of the CB550F, F1 partslist http://www.honda4fun.com/pdf_parts_list/pdf_spac550/CB550F_F1/CB550F_F1-1.pdf:
Flake sunrise orange Honda code: R-2C-F,
Shing orange Honda code: YR-26
For a perfect matching alternative, you'd better contact Menno.

Yup Delta, but those codes mean nothing to paint suppliers

To Menno they do. Also I remember I've seen those codes in a list and in the other column what that specific paint manufacturer (cans) had to offer as a replacement. I seem to remember it was a German manufacturer with a short name, something like two letters, but for the moment I can't recall it.

Maybe so and even to RS paints in UK but my meaning is that to a big paint supplier like ppg for example they mean nothing whilst the codes on cars do
