Honda is known for keeping paint codes secret.  They want you to buy from
their sources.
If you buy the candy color from Honda you have to buy their catalyst and
reducer with the color, not to mention the silver under coat.

I painted my 82 Nighthawk with Candy Apple Red instead of buying from
Honda.  If you paint - be aware that it is a 5 step process and must be
done "wet on wet on wet."  primer, sealer, silver, color then clear coat.
A few dealers - especially older shops will have the color codes, and
still, it must be purchased from Honda.    Les Mc.
