alloy wheel paint colours

Post by ilovedmymantas »

I can't find a paint code list for original alloys.
Is there such a thing?

I don't think that there are colour codes as such.
But there are generic colours...the most common are: -
Silver,
Aluminium,
Charcoal,
Anthracite,
Gun Metal Grey,
Black,
But you probably knew that. :)

Thanks guys, saved me more searching... not that I really needed to be that pedantic, sometimes you just get a thought and have to abandon reason and follow it through lol.
