boombang 2 Posted December 19, 2008 Scania white is very bright and paint should be available cheaply enough, used all over the world on millions of vehicles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rubyna 4 1 Cars Posted December 19, 2008 Vauxhall Glacier White is whiter than white,have a look at Quigs prject thread 205Dimma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quigs 1 Posted December 19, 2008 i've painted mine Vauxhall Glacier white, as i found Ford Diamond too creamy. Here's a pic of it for you. Quigs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MerlinGTI 3 Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) you could try ford diamond white ... Vauxhall 'artic white' is brighter and less yellow than diamond Edit: maybe it was Glacier then Edited December 19, 2008 by MerlinGTI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rom 0 Posted December 19, 2008 You dont want it white !!! Keep it red / orange Im undecied on what white mine will be yet either. But likewise, i want something whiter than the creamy Alpine white it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paintguy 0 Posted December 20, 2008 Another vote for Vauxhall Glacier (a.k.a. Casablanca) White. Much 'bluer' than Ford's Diamond so less creamy, but still a very popular colour so many places have it ready mixed in gallons. Ford Frozen White is quite a bright one too, as seen on the latest Transits, or Mercedes Arctic White is another bright one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicious-monkey87 0 Posted December 23, 2008 One of the Honda whites is brilliant! championship white or something its called! its not creamy, my mate has a prelude in it and it looks amazing when its polished! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pugman211 0 Posted December 26, 2008 My 309 used to be red. And i changed the colour to lexus white. cant remember the code of the top of my head, but i know it had 99% white and the other 1% was a mixture of black and yellow - that being in a litre mix.

CosKev 16 Posted December 27, 2008 My old Cosworth was very bright white,it was painted in just 'base white' Thats got no other colours added,its the base colour they use when mixin the manufacturers shades of white,so you won't find a whiter white Crap pic,but here it is compared to Ford Diamond white: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dean 0 Posted December 29, 2008 i think i may just keep it red as its so much work to change the colour propley and do a good job of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djinuk 2 Posted December 30, 2008 just go for a modern super bright red, you will get away with leaving the engine bay etc the old red Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pugman211 0 Posted December 30, 2008 yea, i'd agree with that. But if i can offer you one (personal opinion) piece of advice, have it painted in clear over base. That way if you ever need a bit of rework, it will be easier to blend etc. Plus clear coat will stay more glossy than a high solids colour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
