MG TD TF 1500 - TF dash paint color

I'm repainting the dash on my TF green (it was previously red) and the instrument cluster bronze. Does anyone have any recommendations on "rattle can" colors for these 2 parts of the dash.

Thanks

The red isn't too hard to find, but I have yet to see the bronze colour of the dash and the steering wheel hub, correctly duplicated.

Wish I could help - good luck

If this helps, here is a picture kindly sent to be by 'J.B.' showing an unrestored dash and upholstery. The green in TF's was more of an aqua green rather than the apple green in TD's so it depends on if you are installing aqua green or apple green upholstery as to what paint colour you choose.

Cheers,
Matthew.

Andrew, This isn't the exact color as I've been told, but is supposed to be the closest we can get to date. Moss sells it in a rattle can. I used it on my restored steering wheel and it looks real close. There was no way of reproducing the marble effect on the outer rim, so I painted it all the same color. It matches the color on the new center cap from Moss. PJ
