Title: Where can I buy VW code paint?
Post by: iceneweb on June 19, 2014, 01:33:40 PM

Looking to see where I can buy paint for my 64 bus. Just need a couple of spray cans for now.



Thanks all

I heard that paint in spray cans is unshippable. Is that false?

So . . . Lordco can do L380 Turki, but they can't do L289 blu Weiss. I found a PPG code for it (12622) but Lordco don't see it on their system. I'll have to do more investigation . . .

if you have a problem i can phone the color library on tues and ask of that code in a newer formula, i would say use a preval sprayer, basically i mix a pint of paint and u have a arosel that has a glass bottle attached, then u splash a little reducer and hardner in the bottle with ur paint and screw it to arosel and spray away, just got some for the 23 window for some areas to do myself.
let me know

Hey Steve, I'm just after a spray can right now. Your system doesn't recognise the cross referenced PPG code for L289, which apparently is 12622. I talked to Jeff and Jenny in the Newton store and they were both mystified.

We had Wolfsburg West spray cans shipped to Hagen's of Blaine. Tower paint will mix up any formula you need in spray cans too and have heard good things if Wolfsburg West doesn't carry the color you're looking for

White and Peters recognise the codes but they don't do spray cans. They sent me to:

Chase Autobody supplies ltd
#13-19257
Enterprise Way
Surrey
604 530 5622

I got both colours mixed up for $30 a can. Perfect.
