Reply to "Campy wheel color"

When I went through this last year I found that there is no current conversion for the paint code in the TSB. I searched the web high and low for alternate colors and found that Eastwood Light Argent Silver Rally wheel paint was a VERY close match, especially when coated with their Diamond Clear (satin finish). Another option is to take an original wheel that has not been repainted or stripped to your local body shop and let them mix the paint to match - Mike Drew did this with excellent results. I spent about $200 on stripper, Zinc Chromate Primer, Eastwood Silver Argent and Diamond Clear paint, and then invested countless hours annealling the wheels and doing all the dirty work. I think Mike paid $100/wheel to have the shop do his. I think I'd drop them off at a body shop if I had it to do over again. Something to think about.
