Genesis - Bike Touch up paints
HI
Hi I have a 2015 Red Croix de Fer 10 (Mjolnir frame), I need to buy a touch up paint to cover some scratches on the frame - can anyone advise where I might buy.
I have asked Genesis on their own website, they do not supply and they have told me the paint colour is TC-6512 but I can find no way of matching to this code, or any listing of TC- code prefixes - it does not seem to be in use anywhere
This is the model

I think it may be the same colour as this years Tour de Fer 10 but am not sure on that point
Thankyou
Frank

False advertising, if you ask me. That post didn't give way when it was hit!

It’s a local supplier to the frame builder I suspect.

Humbrol is a good shout. Alternatively you could take it to Debenhams and find a nail varnish. You could also get your nails done to match.
I too gave up trying to get touch-up for my Equilibrium, Genesis didn't seem very interested.
However I found some Humbrol enamel paint - it comes in those tiny little tins - that was a very close match and cost about a quid. Seven years down the line I've still got three quarters of it left so it's good value.
