Read moreEach scooter brand has developed a color chart for painting their scooters. Each color, among the types of scooter paints, is listed with a codification, specific to each manufacturer, which results in a scooter color code and a color name.
When you want to repair the paint on your scooter, it is therefore mandatory to know either the color code or the name of the color. Scooter color codes are composed of 1 to 4 alpha numeric characters (example : D292), while color names are usually composed of a color and an adjective in English or the manufacturer's language (example: OCEAN BLUE).
So that you can do the work yourself or entrust it to your body shop, we prepare the OEM colors in both spray can and gun can versions.
The paints are « solvent-based » and « 1K basecoat » versions, pre-diluted and therefore ready to be painted.
The contemporary colors of two-wheelers are mainly metallic or pearlescent : the paints are therefore single-component paints to varnish.
This is the two-coat system found with all motorcycles : a base + a clearcoat.
To order, just choose the minimum packaging of 250ml or an aerosol, for a simple touch up or up to 500ml or 1 Litre, to paint a complete scooter.
The scooter color code must be communicated to us simply by message during or after the order.
Our colorist makes the tinting within a maximum of half a day and the scooter's manufacturer's paint once ready is shipped the same day by express.
If you are not sure about the color code or the name of the color, write us and we will check if your data is correct with our scooter color code database.
To determine the right amount of paint needed, you have to consider the approximate size of the room to be painted, adding 20%. Each type of paint, primer or clearcoat has a « yield », that is, a different consumption.
The yield of a paint is expressed in square meters (m²) per liter (L).
We always talk about the consumption of a diluted paint or the paint mixed, either for one coat (and in this case it is specified), or generally.
In such a case, and this is not an extraordinary situation, unfortunately, if you have looked in the maintenance booklet or the papers of the scooter, then you should contact the dealer and ask for the information. In case of inability of the representatives of the brand in your area, then there is the solution of internet forums dedicated to the brand and models of the scooter, in your language or even English-speaking.
