alpineweiss 2 paint?

[fuzzy]

anyone know where i can get a couple of tins of alpine weiss 2 spraypaint made up,preferably mail order but not halfords as theyve made a cnut of it twice now

[Zayyan]

Is your local dealership telling you they can't get it? If they're just being lazy I'll order some through mine and post it to you if you like.

thanks mate but i didnt even try the dealer.for some reason i didnt think i could get paint there ill try tomorrow

[fuzzy]

well i never...after paying halfords a tenner a tin it turns out i can get tins from bmw for only £5 odds + vat,just goes to show the dealer isnt always a rip off

[Lordschleife]

Yeah but they're pretty small tins from the dealer iirc

For small jobs (spoilers etc.), as long as it's mixed right (& you get the right variant!), I find the Halfords paint excellent. Good quality paint & the nozzle is worth a couple of quid for the fan it produces.

[fuzzy]

thats the problem though,ive had it right once but wrong twice from halfords and theyre only 300ml cans as well,the young lads obviously arent trained very well in mixing up the paint there

[Chris-W]

Watch 'em like a hawk!

If its the Holts spraymatch system there is nthing to it. as long as you can read you can mix paint........



.... Ahh crap forgot this is halfords isnt it. Ability to read isnt part of the interview criteria.

[fuzzy]

Try these people, mail order do half lts, Iv used them a ferw times ok on Base colours in Celly, but watch them for metalics

[Morat]

Is this paint that you'd then hand over to a guy with a spraygun/booth/oven /talent or is it an aerosol thing that a bodger like me could wield after removing rust spots and applying primer?

Also... alpinweiss, thats what you'd call a flat colour isn't it? ie non-metallic?

[Chris-W]

You want a decent cellulose paint in an aerosol Miles. That ebay seller does them, but as I say above, the Halfords/Holts stuff is very good, you just need to watch them when they mix it.

Alpine White is a flat, yes. No lacquer needed.
