Bought a small tin of Plasti-kote metalic blue spray, code 135s, from B&Q this evening.
I saw this colour a few months ago and decided that I'd try this one first, hence the small can size.
This is my own personal choice. Some people use layers of purple and metalic blue to achieve a screen accurate colour match. Which achieves a fantastic deep colour. My R5 wont be a perfect replica, close as possible, but not 100%.
Got home and masked off the cylinders. Sprayed a few light coats and left to dry. Also did the wedge face plates, as couldn't restrain myself lol.
Forgot about the other bits I could of sprayed up, but still, I'm really happy with the results.
