Paint Code

Post by badga880 » Sat Sep 21, 2013 5:32 pm

hello all,
did a search for paint codes I have a white 1992 brumby ute with the paint code label missing...but the info coming I am unable to decipher. Ok some call me thick but would anyone know if I ring Subaru with the VIN will they be able to locate the colour code.. or any other place I am on the Gold Coast I only need a touch up spray can

Thanks

bloody paint codes ...the one on my white 92 Brumby came up as not white style tints in the mix....thought we had it as 254 , but just then close inspection on the partial remains of the silver paint code sticker ....looks like 264.

Painter made his own mix to match in the end.

254 or 264 help ?

I found this site on the AUSubaru Wiki :

http://www.paintscratch.com/touch_up_paint/Subaru/

It has good references, but doesn't cover all models ... :(

Cheers, Bantum ...

Dont know if it helps mate but the paint code on my 84 Brumby ute is 241. If you go to some of the paint shops they can match the paint code and then put it into a spray can for you. I had this done here in Ayr for some touch ups.
