Colour matching wing piping

[GSouthee]

I am in the process of finally fitting the wings back on the ol' Girl. However, I wanted to get some wing piping that was a close colour to the new paint, I did not want to have the old black plastic/rubber stuff.

So went a hunting on the inter webby thing (I hate technology, but we are stuck with it), I found lots of coloured piping but none were a close match nor a decent contrast. During this hunt I found lots of vinyl Wing piping with a nice grain finish and a company that can match any colour in a vinyl paint, this can be in either a can Min order 2 cans or in a tin for spraying.

I opted for a tin, as get more for your money, it can be sprayed very easily with a small touch up gun. I purchased my piping from Holdens, wiped it down with panel wipe and away I went. Now I have wing piping that matched my new body colour.

The same company also do leather paint/dye.

Here are the details in case any one else wants to do the same.
