driversdomainuk 8 Posted June 30, 2006 Hi Please can you tell me which colour the 205gti white is - Biancia White or Artic White. Its a 1990 H if thats any use. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) Neither. AFAIK it should be Alpine White - my 90H certainly is anyway. Bianca white is from old 60s/70s stuff, and arctic white is for newer models. Edited June 30, 2006 by RyanMoore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
driversdomainuk 8 Posted June 30, 2006 Neither. AFAIK it should be Alpine White - my 90H certainly is anyway. Bianca white is from old 60s/70s stuff, and arctic white is for newer models. that is what I though (and what I have used to spray the inside of the stripped car) I am about to spray the firbeglass tail gate, and being as it is on the outside I though I best confirm!

KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars Posted June 30, 2006 But isn't the white 306 Rallye in Biana white? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted June 30, 2006 Maybe Arctic is the old one and Bianca is the new one then, but the 205 is definately Alpine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
driversdomainuk 8 Posted June 30, 2006 Maybe Arctic is the old one and Bianca is the new one then, but the 205 is definately Alpine. sorry misread your previous quesiton and I even got it wrong the 1st time - I was meant to ask if it is alpine white - as I have used this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhilCTI 1 Posted July 3, 2006 I had the same nightmare with my 88' cti, Tried alpine white which I think it should be, no where near, then the artic white which was a closer match, then bianca white was too creamy, Whats the nearest match I found so far? ..............Halfords white primer! what a wind up, Phil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted July 3, 2006 Halfords can't mix the right colours to save their life. Mine is definatly Alpine, but the paint I bought from halfords to paint a petrol cap isn't even close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveW 6 Posted July 3, 2006 your best off taking it to a place who sell's auto paint and get a colour match, thats what i did with my 309 as i had no idea of the colour name/code as they will have colour code charts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
driversdomainuk 8 Posted July 3, 2006 It is def not Alpine white - I have just sprayed the tailgate and it is much darker white...almost cream I think it must be Artic white - no idea why! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bono 0 Posted July 5, 2006 Bianca white is the later 306/106 colour as my car is Bianca. I agree with the halfords colours being off though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
