Paint code

Post by **bigmontana** » Mar Sun 09, 2008 10:09 pm

Would anyone happen to know the paint code for Tornado red? I need to get some touch up paint to cover my open rust spot, and tonight as I was washing the salt and grime from the bottom of my car I knicked it and chipped some paint off. So I need to cover that up too.

It should either be on a sticker on your rad support under the hood, or on a sticker in your trunk under the carpet near the spare tire hole. it might/should/could be LY3D

Thank you I thought I that is what it was but I was not sure. I'll get the tube of paint so I can cover up my spots.

Hey Aeron,

I tried to looking online for other VW paint codes because at one time I knew of a sightbut could not find one, do you know of a sight where I could find paint codes for a variety of VW models for a variety of years, like the 60s through now.
Thanks
Matt

It does not have water cooled colors does it? At least I did not see it. I'll have to keep digging thanks.

Nope, just aircooled.

I googled it too but did not come up with anything. I'll keep checking I will have to change my wording a little I guess, thanks guys for the help.
