can of primer, 2 cans of colour, can of top coat (one part, the cheap kind). All from local diy store. cost me, idk, 25 eur.
My conclusion: i should have ordered black from the factory and called it a day.

Blue is Dynamic Blue Metallic from GMC

Purple is Digital Violet from Aston Martin

Both are covered in 2K Clear except where the the blue frame is matte black.

The purple looks great did you have also polish it after the 2k vanish?

This was a very long project I did twice after the first one turned out badly. etoe on YouTube was great.

The full steps after lots of experiments.

Sanding
2K primer, 2 coats
Sanding
Colour, 3 coats
2K Clearcoat, 3 coats
Sanding
Polishing

It took many days, so much sanding, the spraying was the easy part, the sanding took ages.

It turned out good, I love the colour but there are some dust specks in the clear and some marks. Ended up spending £300 on painting supplies... but I learned all about spray painting so it was valuable.

Very close, I wanted British Racing Green but it was very difficult to get a good quality can, I tested a few and they were all pretty bad quality.

Ended up going with Mipa Ral 6005 Moss Green which is the closes match without going for a custom can.

The clear coat really brings the shine, its SprayMax 2K Gloss clear.
