Paint help
« on: 31 October 2012, 08:34 »
I have a front bumper and two wings to paint to match the colour of my car, its black magic pearl. I know the paint code is LC9Z but I got told that there are lots of different variations of this paint code all with different coloured flake. So im stuck... what do I do about getting the exact same colour?

Any help much appreciated, thanks.

Take you filler cap to your local Motor Factor, they should be able to match the paint pretty much exactly, or at least good enough to blend the paint down the doors...

Ok, cheers thom...

Has anyone ever had any experience painting black magic pearl and is it recommended to blend it in?

Any metallic is worth blending in, black magic is no different to any other colour
