MZ TS125 silver

Postby Danfibian » Fri Dec 06, 2013 10:57 am

I am struggling to find the correct color for my MZ TS125 in silver, does any one have an idea which silver it is, and if you also know if the color was used on anything else e.g.a VW car, as this would make it easier for me to get a rattle can from halfords etc.

You're kidding me, right? :shock:
It's an MZ! Surely we haven't come to this, next it will be concourse and repro fasteners :roll:
All the best

Hello

The GDR had no "RAL Colour system", so you only can search for a similar RAL colour.
And maybe one of the colours mentioned above will be near the original colour...
There is a company here in germany that produces colour like the original GDR colour.
But I don´t know if it is worth it to order this colour from germany instead of trying to find a similiar colour in your country.
