Vespa Paint Codes
Unfortunately the information out
there only matches original colors to "Max Meyer" paint codes which
don't exist (as far as I know) in the USA...but I figured I'd post them
anyway. If you have a color you have used that has been a good match, let me know the manufacturer
and code and I will add it to the specific model as a recommendation.
Otherwise if Max Meyer paints
are not available in your area click the image below for a spreadsheet
from moden PPG Paints showing cross references for the correct color in
today's PPG Paints.
Here are two excellent links provided by Jon
Kroge of Jet200
