KKCortina 3 Posted May 8, 2022 Guys - the above Ford Red paint colour was used on Ford cars in 1969/70 - mainly on Mk2 Ford Cortina's and Mk1 Capri's ...... the paint code was BN or probably BNP. I am having problems trying to get a paint shop to identify and supply this paint colour from their colour match databases on their computer systems.... Does anybody have any idea of a manufacturers OWN code or reference for this Ford Red paint ....e.g. Maxmeyers/Nexa etc ....or a link to a manufacturers colour match/reference website?
