I have unfortunately got a couple of paint chips off the rail of my 2023 Sky Wing board. Anyone know where I can get some touch up paint? Have zero knowledge or skill in this area so was hoping to just get a small touch-up bottle. What is the colour code also?
Thanks.
Color code you can find on Fanatic website: red - 199 C, magenta - 511 C
Question is: where to get matching paint?
It would be nice if they supplied a couple of duct tape patches the same colour with the boards
I covered a crack on the back of my board with a small piece of duct tape- when I pulled it off to repair it pulled the paint off- DOH!
Pantone codes are not the same when matting agent is added as it lightens the colour and /or the sheen will be wrong. Plus, its sprayed over white, black, or primer etc so your colour may look different.
Plus if you spray it you need to fade out, which a made-up-at-the-store type of pressure pack can won't allow. So you end up spraying 10cm circle for a 5mm chip. Then it looks like a major repair and you just devalued the board.
Pro repair, or leave alone.
There used to be a saying in the building trade..." if you can't hide it, paint it red."
But maybe use black in this case.
Can't say that I was overly impressed with the paint job on the Sky. When I bought it, it had paint missing around the handle area. This has come from the factory that way.
Hey, found this at Chemist Warehouse for $5. Not perfect but close enough for the couple of small chips I want to touch up.
Now let the smart comments flow.
