Anyone knows where to buy the exact shade of JP 'red gloss' paint for the 2014 Wide Body Surf 'Red'? The paint chips off quite easily. Tks.

hi mate
if you just take your board or some of the chipped off paint to a paint shop they would probably be able to tell you and then whip something up for you

HH ... not time yet. It's a 8'2"x32" Wide Body Surf WS - catches almost everything but just found it a little buoyant and wide for my 65kgs down the face ... will try to see if I can muscle it down over next few session

Let us know if you do find a commercially available one. I have the same board and would like to do some touch ups as well. Thinking about looking for some nail polish

I only ask as I have the same board (2015 version) on order. Hopefully it agrees with my 75kg a bit better!

You'll need to go to an auto paint shop to get the colour matched. Some shops have someone who is really good at matching by eye. Otherwise they'll match it to a fan deck colour like Pantone which will only be close.Send an email to JP and ask them for a colour code. You may get lucky. If you have the code any auto paint shop can reproduce the colour.

Even better, some auto paint shops can package it into an aerosol for you.

Hi,

JP Australia replied - the color code of the 'orangey red' rail is Pantone 805C 2X

Hope this helps anyone patching up their board.

I went to a toy shop and found some model paint that was close.
