Evening all.
Due to a slight petrol spill, some paint around the filler cap needs a touch up.
But of a shame as its just had a full respray.
Does anyone know if there is a tough up, or spray can available for
YBA Pearl Deep Blue No.2
Just need a brush full.

I have used these a few times, good quality and match

Or maybe whoever did your respray will have a bit of paint left over?
I'd speak to the painter, petrol shouldn't do that if it's been done properly.

I did, he says paint can't withstand modern chemicals.
It's bollocks.
But what can I do

Shout & swear at him a lot?
That's shit service & just means he didn't seal the edge of the paint properly with the lacquer.
I might have some out in the garage from when I had my K7 and had the handlebar fairing sprayed - I'll have a look tomorrow evening
@Idh (as I'm out on a ride all day) and let you know. I might have got rid though, I just can't remember.
UPDATE: Just checked
@Idh and yes I have a touch up pen which I made using some of the left over paint from when I had my handlebar fairing sprayed - pm me your full name and address and I'll get it sent off to you.
