I had a little pot of paint that I got for my Suzuki motorbike. I had a small body trim painted last year and when I gave the painter the code, he told me he couldn't find the formula through however he would normally find it and he had to get a half litre of the paint through Suzuki in Dublin at a cost of something like E70.

He painted the trim and gave it back with half or two thirds of the paint remaining. Unfortunately, he didn't do a very good job. I was going to have someone else repaint it to a better standard using the leftover paint until the can fell off the shelf and split :rolleyes:

I was about to throw the pot away when I noted that on the label, there is a note reading:

Code: 1LF

.50 Litres
M4 324.8
M505 368.1
A503 489.1
A427 513.3

Elsewhere, the label also says "Glasurit 90 Li.....". There are other notes printed on the label but they are under a very thick coat of exploded Suzuki Deep Blue paint.

I wonder if above is the formula for the paint? If so, could I bring that to a painter with a paint scheme to have him make up some more? I'd be very aggrieved to give them that kind of money for a very small amount of paint twice.

Thanks all
