Here's the first whack at updating the paint codes.
More to come!
I believe most of these codes are PPG colors,
some of the paint codes to be added later will be Sikkens, I'll modify the tables accordingly.

The spark red maybe wrong. I stopped at a paint place (non PPG) and he tried finding code DBC 75056 for spark red and came up with nothing.

Can anyone elaborate on these paint codes?

I've been having the same problem with Red Snap. My DuPont dealer can't find the 75050 code anywhere on his system.

FYI... I did some searching for ppg codes, even spark red, motorcycle paint, anything that might give me an idea what color code I have. I came to a whole bunch of dead ends.

So I had a auto paint guy use his color camera on my bike and he took three shots and got three good readings and was able to make me a couple rattle cans for $17 each. I have yet to use them; my plans are to paint fairing lowers for the S3T and a chin fairing from an X1 and then put them on my bike.

But it would be nice to find out the deal on these paint codes.

I used the onyx alloy code at a PPG dealer and they gave me a breakdown of all the colors that go into it and it came back as onyx alloy per BMC. either it's the reds that are screwing up or you might have to go to a PPG dealer.

I did some poking around on the PPG site last night.
I was unable to look up paint codes without a sign on Id and password.
I'll give it another try tonight.

Yes I found the PPG sign in with a log in and password. But seeing how I am not a PPG dealer that is all the further I got. It would be nice if BMC would give that info out.

The snap red is a PPG number of DBC-75050.

Spark Red is made in a PPG Lab some where, so there is no way to get the paint.

If there is sufficient interest there are a couple possible solutions. One of the major problems, with small amounts of paint, is the high shipping costs.

What is so secret about spark red that PPG wont let it out. The other colors seem to be available. Just sounds rotten.

Man!
That is the mother lode!

Court,
Can you verify the color mixes for the 95 and 96 models?
I've been trying to find the Carribean Candy Blue formula for some time.

Thanks much John!
