Levo Gen 3 Levo 3 pro redwood paint

[Rocketship]

I am struggling to get some satin redwood touch up paint for my Levo 3 pro. Anyone had any joy with this? Had a can mixed today and it was a terrible match. Just need to touch up a couple of scratches and then I will invisiwrap the frame.

Specialized can’t help. 11k bike and you can’t get paint for it. Crazy crazy.

Nail polish as it comes in a zillion different colours and after buying 3 or 4 managed to match the lime green of my first merida close enough that you could see the scratches and chips. Many different brands and if you go the cheap shops they are rarely over a couple of dollars

Thanks
Did you take your bike to the nail bar and get them to match it?

No just took a good photo up close on my phone, checked it back against the actual paintwork on the bike and then used the pic in the shops. Still took 3 or 4 bottles of nail polish before I got that passable match. Missus got some extra bottles but didn't really like the lime green colour

Thanks for this. Will do that tomorrow and let you know how I get on

Thanks for this. I called them already but they are not making satin redwood

Sorry, I thought the Satin Maroon is the same color as the Satin Redwood...

It's annoying when you get marks on the bike, but using touch up paint where you have to use primer, color and clear coat rarely makes it better but often worse because you always will see a color difference, I think the easiest and best thing is to put on some cool stickers where the damage is. Maybe someone can post some pictures of how it turned out with touch up paint?

In the end it's a mountain bike. If you dont want any chips, scratches or whatever on your bike, wrap it first or put it in a shelf...
Anybody els, ride it like you stole it!

All sorted. The local paint shop mixed up some more paint for me and it matched well.
Have invisframed the bike now, so all sorted. I have never bothered before but the red paint on the Levo really shows up scratches,
I dropped my missus off to get her nails done whist I sorted out the paint ha ha
