Corrado RED paint codes

Recommended Posts

My corrados goin in for respray on the 31st of this month.

I want it red but unsure what shade?

Am planning on going for the original tornado red is it?

Isnt there a flash red?

Can you show me pics of different rados in the different shades and also the paint codes if possible?

 

Thanks

Hard to describe the difference between Tornado and Flash Red.. i've got a flash red car and i've seen a few tornado red's but I could not tell you which was brighter / deeper / glossier / redder!

Tornado seems darker than Flash IMO, but then, not seen a Flash in the flesh.

 

Wonder if Flash is less prone to fading?

When I got mine resprayed I was offered about 5 differernt shades of Tornado red from the colour charts...all the same paint code though. The variation between them was quite a lot though!

Flash red is a lot more orange, the tornado is a more of a redder red if that makes sense, ive got both parked alongside eachother in my garage and there is a lot of difference, personally i think the tornado is a better red but you dont need to stick to rado colours, there are some really nice pearl reds out there, go to a paintshop and look @ the motorbike chips if you want some inspiration !!
