Paint code for tunsten grey paint please

[LukeRobbo]

Had a bit of a battle with a bmw in my car today and suprisingly my car came off better and has no structural damage just a broken headlight,bumper and bit of a dint in the wing.

Anyways im gonna get some cellulose paint and get my dad to spray it at home in the garage.It will do until i get a full respray in a bodyshop.

Il prob use halfords for the paint just wondered if anyone knows what the paint code is incase they ask please? Had a quick look in the haynes for where to find the paint code on the car but couldnt see anything.

608, but there are 7 variations on that shade depending on year and what mood renault were in.

Typical.I knew their was a few shades with the raider paint but not tungsten.Just thought their was flint and tungy?

Thanks for that.Dave sbs did suggest it could be 606 or 608 i think he said.He is gonna check up for me tomorow i think so il post what mine is.My car is an 89 on a G.

they are all 608, you just get 608 shade1, 608 shade 2 and so on. No easy way of knowing what your car is without colour chips. :)

He done a good well priced job on a little bit round my windscreen recently so hopefully he will know what it is exactly.

does anyone know which shade is the darkest ? 1 or 7

I doubt its in any numerical order there are just seven diffrent shades as pointed out by scoff.
