A source for PPG touch up paint
Indy Fab is well-known for using PPG paint on their bicycles, but do not sell touch-up paint. I recently bought an Indy Fab bicycle in Omaha Orange, but was not having much luck in finding touch-up paint at the local hobby (model) shops, auto body supply stores or auto paint supply stores. I did a Google, and in relatively short order, found www.ppgcarpaint.com. I just placed an order for two ounces of paint and a 12 ounce spray can of matching clear coat. It is somewhat expensive, at $ 45 for the order including shipping, but I am assured of a good color match.
Since a number of framebuilders are using auto paints these days, this website may be a good source to locate matching paint. They offer a variety of search tools, and many of the DuPont and PPG colors match.
Hopefully this will come in handy for someone else.
