Touchuppaint advice
RAL & BS381C paint guide
Choose the colour code, paint format and finish for your project. Start with a physical colour reference.
British Standard BS381C
Browse the 91 standard BS381C shades. BS381C is its own range; a similar RAL colour name does not mean the codes match.
Three details to decide before ordering
The exact colour code
Use the code on a physical reference, specification or original paint record. A screen swatch is an approximate guide.
The application format
Choose a 30ml touch-up bottle, 20ml fine-tip paint, a 400ml aerosol or a tin from 100ml to 5 litres. Check the selected option on the product page.
The finish and surface
Tell us if you need matt, satin or gloss and what you are painting. The current size selector does not confirm a custom finish; ask our team before ordering a finish that is not explicitly listed.
Colour and sheen are different decisions
Matt
A low-sheen appearance. It can look different from the same colour in a shiny finish.
Satin
A finish between matt and gloss. Check the required sheen against the item or specification.
Gloss
A shiny appearance. The colour code alone does not specify this finish.
