05 Candy Graceful Red rattlecan colormatch found

[bigbikerrick]

Hello folks, , I have found a paint that is a perfect color match to Honda's Candy Graceful Red, used on the 05 1300. The paint is House of Kolor Brandywine candy basecoat #HOK C2C-KBC-01. In their "shimrin" line of paints. you can get this paint on ebay in a rattle can ready to spray, and then it just need to be cleared over, and done, perfect color match! You can also get it in half pints, etc for use with a spray gun. I used it to take care of a few chips on the front fender,and saddlebags,and am very happy with the results. I was able to repaint both saddlebags,and front fender with one can. I used a standard automotive urethane clear over the top.
Rick.

It seems to be much cheaper than what "Color Rite"charges for matching paint, and House of Kolor is known for quality among the custom paint circles. I dont know if HOK paints are available in Europe, HOK is a California company I think.
