Genesis - Bike Touch up paints
HI
Hi I have a 2015 Red Croix de Fer 10 (Mjolnir frame), I need to buy a touch up paint to cover some scratches on the frame - can anyone advise where I might buy.
I have asked Genesis on their own website, they do not supply and they have told me the paint colour is TC-6512 but I can find no way of matching to this code, or any listing of TC- code prefixes - it does not seem to be in use anywhere
This is the model

I think it may be the same colour as this years Tour de Fer 10 but am not sure on that point
Thankyou
Frank

It’s a local supplier to the frame builder I suspect.

Humbrol is a good shout. Alternatively you could take it to Debenhams and find a nail varnish. You could also get your nails done to match.
I too gave up trying to get touch-up for my Equilibrium, Genesis didn't seem very interested.
However I found some Humbrol enamel paint - it comes in those tiny little tins - that was a very close match and cost about a quid. Seven years down the line I've still got three quarters of it left so it's good value.
