OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
I have a reynard single seater that the PO who restored it, did it as a Niki Lauda Parmalat thing (parmalat brabham). The paint was 3 colours, red, dark blue and light blue. I am trying to match the dark blue (within reason) to get a rattle can made to paint a small area. Here's the nose section showing the dark blue...

I have three small pots with the paints in and the dark blue one says "Fiat Blue Lancia" and has a number 75 on it. I can't find anything like that on the internet and tried one colour blue which is way lighter!

Is there anyone who has knowledge of Fiat/Lancia paint codes of probably the late 70's?
Cheers
Graham

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
I can check our scheme Graham to see if anything resembles code 75, failing that you could take that panel to a supplier who can mix a formulation to match.

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Thanks Darren. One theory I have is part of the code has been wiped off, so it could be 175 or 275 etc.
Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
And to add I would take it to someone to match, but I'm super locked down at the moment with Mrs R being a super sickie!

Those chaps that do smart repairs from a van also have paint analysing equipment and will paint it for you for not a lot...

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Hi Graham,
Had a look through our samples and it would seem your paint code has a digit missing, there's dozens of blues and nothing obvious I'm afraid.
We could have something formulated with a sample as I mentioned and Wayne's suggestion might be a good option too?
Shout if I can help further.

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Thanks Darren for looking, you are very likely right about the missing digit.
There are three colours involved. This dark blue one which is x75 or 75x. I think on the pot there is a slight smudge at the front of the two digits, so poss x75.
A light blue which is Fiat 767 on the touch up pot which comes up on the internet as Azzuro Mundo
A Red whcih is called FIAT Rosso on the pot and has a 1 on the pot, poss FIAT 111
Doing some googling on the variants of x75x finds:
475 which is very dark, but the blue is very dark!
754 which looks a light blue.
If you have the energy to look, do you have a Fiat/Lancia 475/A in your swatches?
Cheers

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Unfortunately not Graham, I was looking for any blue that had 75 as part of the number.

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Darren, thanks for trying, much appreciated.
I've used the lighter blue I bought over the repair and it looks quite natty! I'll paint the other side to match and make a feature of it.
Then when we are ready for a proper bodywork overhaul, I'll get the paint matched.
Cheers!

Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
I can’t help on the blue, but my wife’s ‘08 Panda 100hp has code 111/A, which might help you define the red.gridgway wrote: A Red whcih is called FIAT Rosso on the pot and has a 1 on the pot, poss FIAT 111
Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
Thanks, that seems to be the one for the red!
Re: OT: Fiat/Lancia paint code help
A quick and happy update. I bought a pot of 475A touch up paint from ebay and I am happy to report it is an exact match! I'm doing the same with the other two colours (111/A Rosso and 767/A Azzurro Mondo) to confirm the three colours.
Thanks all for the help - especially Darren!
