Colour code for Skoda green as used on brake callipers?

Featured Replies

Does anyone have a colour code for the Skoda green as used on the vRS brake callipers :confused:

I've heard more than once that Hammerite Flat Green is a good enough match for anyone not armed with a spectrometer!

Smooth Green Hamerite

The actual colour is called Minz Green

If your calipers are already the right colour but have just faded a bit, you can clean them up thoroughly with brake cleaner and spray with clear high temperature lacquer which will restore the depth and shine to the paint. Saves the need for getting green paint everywhere as you are likely to do if repainting completely. The clear lacquer can also help any slight mismatch between touched up parts and the original hue as I would tend to keep as much original paint on there as possible as it will be far tougher than anything you apply at home.

Yeah my new ones on the mkII are red, green was better in my opinion.

Thanks Stu, a bit of further digging on Google led me here:

Looks like it's a BMW motorbike Police colour!!

I sometimes rub a bit of wax into them to bring the shine back.

I've touched mine up with the hammerite and you can't tell.

Also did Shreds calipers on the Superb and quite pleased with the results.

Cheers
