My spit is white (Paint code 19) and I purchased two tins of "19" paint from
Rimmers the year before last to clean up my wheel rims. I'd say that the
paint on my rims is a bit on the creamy side, while the body is a brighter
white. I'm looking at getting my bonnet (hood) re-sprayed over the summer,
and so I'll be chasing down the proper British Leyland code 19 white.
Of course with printing and monitors, the "real" colour is sometimes quite
difficult to decipher. If you're interested I'll spray a bit of card with
the paint I have from Rimmers, and put it in the post to you.
