Hi, I’ve got the maroon/ gold k1100RS. I want to touch up some scratches and chips before selling her so wondered if anyone know a match for the gold. If the colour is hard to get, anyone know a close match in somewhere like Halfords? I’m particularly after the gold colour on the wheels which have some paint chips on them. Thanks.

Thanks for that, got the maroon code but there doesn’t seem to be any info on the gold wheel paint colour. Anyone tried to find/replicate this colour?

Thanks

Jonny, A Company called e-tech make a gold alloy wheel paint. Probably looks much the same. But I don't think you can get it there  :neener:.

Or there's this  https://www.ebay.com/itm/Dupli-Color-HWP107-GOLD-Black-High-Performance-Wheel-Rims-Paint-12-oz/111399660051?epid=1938045649&hash=item19efefea13:g:9r4AAOSwZHVbseW9

If you decide to use that paint, I would suggest looking for the DupliColor matte wheel clear coat to go over it.  It is a lot harder than the color stuff and will protect better from the effects of strong wheel cleaners.
