Default Re: Paint Codes

Hi,

My dealer gave me the PNEAM code for the Mondeo, and the paint centre was able to confirm the colour through their "look up" computer system. I ended up with two touch up bottles, one for the intermediate coat and one for the top coat - and quite specific advice that I ought not mix up the application order. I have a couple of very narrow scratches on the panel above the lift gate window that shows a cream/white colour which, I suppose, is the base coat. Because it is right in my eye line it is very annoying, but I'm hesitating about trying a fix because I could easily make it worse.

Just a comment, I was told the Mazda red was unique to that manufacturer and I have been able to look at the two colours close together and , in my view, although they are close they are not the same. If you had a Mazda red panel on a Ruby Red Mondeo there would be, I think, a quite serious mismatch.

Cheers
