    Paint match query?

    Is there a paint spec for the pearly white paint on either the '83 GS750ES and GS1100ES models?

    Also seeking a match for the '83 GS1100ES 'blue' colour....it's nice

    Take one of your panels to an auto paint store and they can match the color for you. The Pearl white paint is three stage: base coat, pearl coat, clear coat. Not cheap.

      What Ed said. Also, I prefer to use the good old style paint swatches.
      Many places say that they can photo match (fancy little gadget that is supposed to read true color) the paint color perfectly BUT...I have always found the tones to be slightly off.

      Just a thought...
