Frax Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hi all I have been looking at paint for to 90 overhaul, I wanted silver but would have preferred it to be none metallic so that scratches and the like could be covered up easier. I was under the understanding that you could only get silver if it had a lacquer finish as it was the lacquer that gave it its colour. I was going to spay paint it but after seeing a recent post and Rambo’s excellent paint jobs with a roller I may just try that. As said I am still looking at silver and found this “Door Hinge Silver” on the following web page http://www.stephen.hull.btinternet.co.uk/nonmetallic.html it is listed as None Metallic Do any of you own a Defender with this colour and if so any chance of a picture. My only other option if I do go the roller route is to find a suitable grey. Any help with “Door Hinge Silver” appreciated. Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilloverland Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Just a guess but I think that would be for the silver hinges on a 'heritage' (bronze green) limited edition model 90 or 110. When I did mine I used 'bmw titan silver' in an areosal from halfrauds. Its not that far off and looked ok without laquer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
