CFS sell pigment; you could always try to match it at home in true locost style?

You might want to give some of the VW based beach buggy builders a try they tend to supply the body's in a number of differant colours

No can do sadly. Its for a customer down south so I dont have an example to copy.
I spoke to my paint guy and hes says it a metallic with a slight pearl. It looks doubtfull for a gell pigment.
Ah well.

West & Senior in Manchester are currently doing a colour match for me. Had to send them a sample of what I wanted matched, though.
Looks like you know what the colour is so should be relatively easy....give them a shout...

metalic gel will need to be sprayed to get an even finish otherwise it's like using the ali paint where it mostly looks fine but then you get a
splodgy bit that spoils the whole job.
