JUST RECEIVED ANSWER FROM CARA MATCH

I regret we are unable to supply corfu white as we have not been able to get a sample to match,we have tried on numerous occasions to get a sample from the manufacturer but without success, suggest you try the manufacturer see if they know of a supplier, if you find one I would appreciate it if you could let me know

corfu white is paint code 224F

take that to your local halfors superstore and ask them to make up a spray can or tin of it

Overcame the same problem with a trip to the local sign shop.

Some vinyl Graphic in a colour matching the vans purple name signs and some saftey reflective red was made into a nice arty flash on either side of the van.

With a reasonable photo some will scan vans artwork and for little money run you off an adhesive sign that will look pro and hide any paint blemishes ;-)
