#3: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:05 am ---- ? the bloke just said, nope sorry try somewhere else
#4: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: MrZiggerz, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:07 am ---- In both the halfords here at the back of the shop there's another desk and they do it. Try googling for a paint specialist near your area if not.
#5: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:13 am ---- Platinum silver is eyc?
I've used it for ages, colour match isn't perfect but it's fairly close.
thats what i thought, but in the halfords book they have next to the paint it says
"Platinum Silver: PAG: Talbot - Various Models: 1973 - 1981"
the only silver that mentions a 206 is aluminium - EZR, hmm
#7: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: Harry, Location: StaffordPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:18 am ---- That actually kind of makes sense, because it's not exactly the same colour as mine but I've used it so many times it's ok.
Sounds really odd as it's the most common colour by far, might by a mistake by them.
#8: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:18 am ---- i might go and get a tester of platinum silver - PAG, and see if its the same, whats the best way to test without putting it on the car?

#14: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: Jamie1337, Location: Dorchester, DorsetPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:21 am ---- Looks for citroen in EYC, should be called metallic quartz. It's exactly the same bud (I've CC'd with this)

#20: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:33 am ---- haha oh yeh, it made me think of the peugeot 206CC for some reason, stupid. id prefer to get it from halfords because I have a giftcard to use up
#21: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: Jamie1337, Location: Dorchester, DorsetPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:33 am ---- citroen EYC is a close enough match for me (I only did interior parts mind). If I were going to get exterior parts done personally I'd rather go to a local paint supplier and get them to make up a better match (there's about 8 different varients within EYC from what I've been told).
#22: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:35 am ---- 8? awww whattt lol
#23: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: micka, Location: leicestershirePosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 10:36 am ---- I used to work at halfords ripspeed and they do mix paints any colour even if you want flip paints, you got to ask at the parts dept, go back before they close mate! They got paint mixing machines!!!!!
Go go go....

#32: Re: Halfords Dont Sell It ??!? Author: davieboy86, Location: Kent,Posted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 4:07 pm ---- What I'm saying fella is that in halfords in the spray paint aisle ( atleast the 4 halfords near me) there aren't codes, just paint colour names, go to the Peugeot row, next to aluminium silver and right beside moonstone blue I believe is peugeot platinum silver,
