PAINT CODES AND COLOUR DIFFERENCE
« on: 07 February 2013, 21:36:37 »

My tourer is paint code Z359 GREEN and i need to replace the rear doors as rust is showing under the rubbers at the top, Steve has a couple of estate rear doors in paint code Z380 GREEN.
Now the question is how much difference is there likly to be between these colours, they look the same but they are from a pre fl (Z359)& a fl(Z380)
Has any one ever seen these two colours together, i know someone recently said on here the star silver paint is very slight, almost unnoticable. is this the case for the green.
Over to you.
Gary.

green color will not show difference as much as silver but will still be visible..
 
if you park on a shadow or on a cloudy day may be not.. but sunlight will make it visible..

preparing an exact matching color for paint is not easy even with a prof shop..requires several trials..  you decide :-\
