Paint code

Post by bearsfolks »

I was told by my dealer that they no longer carry any paint, and that it has to be custom mixed. My local Dupont outlet doesn't list the factory color, Atlanta blue, #796 in their computer. Does anyone happen to know the Dupont paint code for Atlanta blue? Thanks :roll:

You may want to try a BMW car dealer. They have the same color on the cars. Or, a different auto painter.

Don't know if this will help any. There's one colour reference for Alanta Blue. By the way #796 is the scheme reference for the whole bike. The colour ref is 306.

Code German English Type Color Part Number
306 Atlantablau Atlanta Blue Metallic Blue 51 91 1 052 476

Thanks Chris. The color scheme#796 is not the paint code for Atlanta blue. The color code for Atlanta blue is indeed #306 as confirmed by my local paint store. I appreciate your help.
