    Greetings,

    Does anyone have the paint code for '65 Konis?

    Also, is there a rattle can that's dead on?

    Best regards,

    Neil

    Neil,
    I took an original front 4-65 dated Koni to the paint shop
    and they checked the paint under the bottom bracket where the
    paint didn't show any sign of fading and mixed it for me.
    It came out perfect and if you send me a personal message
    with your email address I'll send you the formula. Any paint
    shop should be able to mix it for you.

    Greetings,

    In researching this question, I found out the following information I thought I'd pass along: I found out that Plasticoat code T- 31 in a rattle can is a near perfect to perfect match.

    Best regards,

    Neil

    Override: sorry, I'm confused: do you mean he has another brand of rattle can paint in addition to the Plasticoat code T- 31 I mentioned that's even more dead on?

    Best regards,

    He had it mixed and put in spray cans.
