colin i have used this colour on a mk1 and a focus .
Got the paint from halfords , will have a look in the morning to see if i still have the rattle can and if so will pm you the colour mate.

escortnutter

here you go mate heres the colour

petey.

use nail varnish remover for the decals mate, then just flat the factory laquer back if your changing the colour might not need to though, the varnish remover is pretty good, just dont get it on windows!

anything in particular mate? ive got everything that isnt jap or a wip for sale

PHAT C

yeah cheers, i was looking at that one but wasn't sure if it was to bright

PHAT C

cool and that colour was from halfords? maybe i just missed it or they didn't have any at the time. if you can find the can and let me know the right colour that wld be great
cheers

escortnutter

pm me what youve got mate and ill have a look.

escortnutter

i just remembered i have put the name of the colour on the top of the post for the focus mate...lol
it is ford signal green.
it comes out a lot brighter than it looks on the lid.
i had a real mk1 escort 1300gt in this colour and it is very close to whats on the bike in your picture.
they never had it in halfords the first couple of times i wanted it , then it turned up in there one day so i got a couple of cans!

sewells down the road from me has heaps of ford signal green signal orange signal yellow and olympic blue all in acrylic paint which is miles better than car paint it dont react and lays perfect its only £2.95 a tin and would'nt be much for p+p mate if you want me to get you some and post it to you
