    I was looking to get some touch up paint for my Fireblade after quick look online came across RS Motorbike Paint thought prices a bit steep £8.50 for 25ml but delivery way too much £8 for two 25ml so with Tax it would cost £30 delivered to UK mainland and a lot more for delivery to Ireland where I'm based.

    Anyone know other Company's that supply good quality touch up paint for the Fireblade? Thanks

    Sometimes you have to pay for the good stuff.

    I use RS exclusively so can't offer any alternative. What I can say is that the product is top notch. Can you offset the cost by ordering some other product as well, i.e. panel wipe, cloths or wet and dry?

    I know some have used model kits paint pots for effective touch up so I hope a member might elaborate on this during the evening.;)

    Might help if you post the colours you need for a relevant reply.

    Thanks for reply I do a bit of modelling (latest was a 1/16 Tamiya King Tiger remote took me about 6 months to build it loved every minute of it) have loads of Tamiya paints so will look into that, but after another half hour research online it looks like RS is pretty competitive re prices even cheaper than some sites I've been on, so think will just go with RS. Thanks

    I also use RS, and find the colour match to be excellent. They are also very helpful if you have any questions.
