| Black Paint... Seriously confused. Hey folks. I'm in the process of respraying an old fabia front grill, the colour I need is blackmagic. My local Motorist Discount Centre doesn't have any but they do have the VW "Diamond Black" colour... may be a silly question but are they the same thing? Many thanks... have a good night all, Duggie

| Re: Black Paint... Seriously confused. The code you need is 9910, just go into halfords and ask them to mix a can with that code. If the Diamond Black is the same code then it's the right one. |

| ECUless  | Re: Black Paint... Seriously confused. Why Halfords mix for a tenner when the proper dealer stuff is cheaper? |

You go to halfords to get the paint because there is one everywhere as opposed to Skoda dealers which may not be in the right place for some people. BTW, if you can get it use UPOL laquer. It's far superior to halfords own which I have found to be not much better than hairspray. | |
