Are there any owners of classic British machines amongst the Bluemoon faithful ?

I'm not an owner but do quite a lot of work with them !
I've got a body shop and specialize in colour,as in a lot of cases in restoration, people will go the extra mile to get correct parts .
But when it comes to the colour scheme they hit a brick wall & go for a colour that is near to the original.
I, a long time back kept a log of info and now carry out work on lots of project's where we have matched colour to the manufacturers standard colour on bikes , cars plant and old machines etc.
My working motto is if a colour has been formulated it can be re-formulated
Ps , the same with decals we supply, classic to modern we use them on show bikes with no complaints

@Joeboyblue. Where is your bodyshop pal ? I've got a 1965 Triumph Tiger 90 mid restoration. The colour scheme listed as Pacific blue over silver, although I have read some literature that details this as Pacific blue over Alaskan white.
I may have need of your services in the coming months.
