What white?

[simo]

Ok - i need some help id'ing what white is used on my bus? Its a bright white as you can see from the pics, and ive seen similar on other buses! I know its not og for the year but im sure its a common vw colour. I started off buying l581 cloud white, then l90d pastel white but both are nowhere near as they are creamy whites :shock:


Any ideas peeps :msn4:

Here you are mate - maybe try a match against these two versions of white

Alpine White = L90B

Alpine White 78 = L90E

Alpine white was never an EB colour have you tried Lotus White that was on early 68/69's

Thanks chaps - alpine white looks a possible!

Graham - did you notice on my bus at datc ? Is lotus white similar to alpine in colour?

Lotus White is much more of a true white than Pastel for instance.

My bus is Lotus white on the top half and I 'think' the pop top is Alpine white if that helps. There are pics in the link on my sig.

Mine is lotus white which I would say is still more 'creamy' than a bright white
