Re: [yamahacs80] Replicating the exact Yamaha CS-80 paint color

2012-08-30 by David Rogoff

Good luck!   I scratched the top of my last CS80 while bringing it home 
when I bought it.  It had the cover, but it wouldn't fit in the car with 
it on :(     When I sold it a couple of years later I spent a long time 
mixing model paints to get it right.  I was lucky that the scratch was 
very small.

I need to repaint a part of my CS-80, but have not had success with the two auto paint shops that have attempted it at my request thus far.  Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.
