This is a perfect colour match. Yellow Orange you need.

Then some glitter from a craft shop.
The red of early tank badges are vermillion. :D

Ha Ha, :D ye and I can see also, but was wondering if you knew what shade, how about the chrome?
My bike has the stick on emblems, but just thought I would try and tart up the ones I’ve got for something to do

I gave mine to Kev (canneletto) on here and he did a cracking job as you can see from the before and after photos. Speak to him nicely and he may do yours 8-)
