Wheel Paint Colour Code

Hi Guys, I know this is a bit of a long shot - but here goes!

Does anyone know the paint colour code for the dark grey on the 19" Ten Spoke Diamond Turned With Dark Paint (Style 3) alloy wheels fitted to MY12 SD4 HSE. I have a very small chip that I would like to touch-up before it spreads. The colour is very similar to Orkney Grey, but pssibly a shade darker. Question

Thanks 2012 SD4 HSE Lux, Barolo Black, Windsor Ebony, 19" Style 3 Diamond Turned Alloys, Panoramic Sunroof. Added: DIY Exhaust Trim, Piano Black Grab handles, MY13 Fog lamp Bezels, Gloss Black Side Vents & Door Handles

Thanks for that tip Slaney - that's what I feared.

Just received some Lago Grey Metallic touch up paint, but it looks a bit too dark to me. Am going to do a test sample and let it dry thoroughly then check again.

Chris, not happy with the Lago colour - its too dark. Have ordered some Orkney Grey - so let's hope that's a match otherwise this could turn out to be an expensive chip! If the Orkney is not quite right, plan B is to mix a little with some Lago and see how that looks! Its only a very small chip, but as Slaney said it can spread if left untouched, and I'm definately a candidate for the OCD club.

I had the same wheels on a Stornoway coloured Freelander, they are are much darker than Stornoway, where as Orkney is lighter than Stornoway so trying Orkney, your getting further away Rolling Eyes p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Google (merc 7229 colour code) in google images and you will see a trim on the first image, looks about right Thumbs Up

If you know of a place that mixes paint give them the name above and they will know what your talking about
Got mine mixed up at a place called Car Spares not sure if there's one where you are Question BETTER looking half of the famous Twinlanders
