successfully managed to clip my paintwork this morning whilst putting a motorcycle back in the garage,nothing drastic, just a chip of paint but would like to quickly seal it.
I’ve got a 95 plus 8 with original paint, I have the original owners certificate but can’t remember if that gives a paint code, can anyone recommend anyone sellers in the UK who can sell matched colour chip repair kits?

I've found this site useful when requiring just a small phial of paint and they recognised my Morgan paint code. Chippex insist on supplying a full rub down and repair kit with price to match and you still only get a small phial of paint.

Any good paint supplier with a paint scanner should be able to scan it and make some up.

My plus 4 has the Morgan paint code stamped on the weight / VIN plate under the bonnet on the side of the fuse box.

As Rich said, Chipex are great for Morgans but another one to try could be Fixachip who certainly came up trumps when I was trying to get some touch up paint which was a 1950's MB paint. They can be contacted on www.cartouchuppaints.co.uk
Here for a good time not a long time!!

So I'm running a scan of my machine now just incase..

If you have a traditional solid colour it may be worth seeing if Paintman could do you a match. The advantage is that these are synthetic coach building enamels so very easy to use. I bought some Jaguar 753 Brooklands Green and some Land Rover 507 Caledonian blue from them, and I'm very happy. https://paintman.co.uk

I mix up my own touch up paints from Humbrol Enamel & apply with the same sable hair brush I have been using for the last 42 years.
