I scratched my rear fender jerking the passenger pillion off. Need small amount of Goodwood Green paint. Can any one direct me to good substitution for touchup? I ride a 2005 green America. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't want to be a part of any animal experimentation or animal parts on my TRIUMPH. I'll stick to petroleum products.

One of the Ford Greens is very close. I took the front fender to Auto Zone and found a close match just by holding them next to the fender.

I should clarify. There are assorted animal parts on my bike from time to time but they are splattered on the front or dangling underneath or behind. I consider these death by suicide or wrong place, wrong time.

Triumph touchup paint kit for the Goodwood Green is T3120300-HK. My dealer has ordered the touchup paint for me when I've needed it.

Milio is right, i scratched my fender putting the pillion on as well. I went to my dealer and they even had my paint color in stock. At least you know it'll be a match that way.
It's like chasing a race horse on steroids!!!

See the litt-ul yellow brushes? They are the cat's meow for touch up work. A body shop might sell you a couple if the parts store doesn't carry them.

when I bought my bike, the salesman gave me a little bottle of touch up paint, with a brush on the cap, and a little bottle of clear coat. So at least its available..a nice thing for him to do, but when I stopped back to say hello he had already moved on..now they dont give ANYTHING away.. G
I never wanted to lead, and I never wanted to follow.
I just wanted to ride.

The exception is Mulberry Red. I understand it is 4 different colors applied over each other and clear coat. At any rate Triumph does not even list the color code.
