Re: Dave's Mystery Restoration?

Hi Dave

I've ordered 400ml off these guys today. If I'm happy with the mix .then I'll order more . Just over £21 delivered. This is a base coat . But you should be able to order either as yours is a solid colour.
Hope this helps
Cheers John

Re: Dave's Mystery Restoration?

Morning
If it's not on the jaguar list .then it's going to be a case of going to a paint shop and finding the colour shade you want . But I'm not sure how many are still open . I would order off the net . because you really need to see in the flesh .not on a screen.
