    Don't know about genuine paint, but most auto shops will sell touch up paint, what colour do you need?

    I agree, but on close inspection of the chip which is about the size of a match head, the paint looks very thick. And there are other colours under the white.
    That is why I was looking for there paint. I will ask in the shop were I brought it tomorrow. My question was a general one in case anybody knew where to get it. I did Google it but that was no help. Ask a question on here and you get a better response than on Google.

    I'd just use auto touch up paint - you can always build it up coat by coat.

    Unless you want a factory fresh finish :roll:

    Take it to a proper car sprayers, auto body shop and ask for a match. Dont just ask for white. Look at how many white cans of paint Halfrauds have on the counter. If you used the wrong one it looks horrid. A big pot should only cost avout £5-10 anyway, more than enough to last the life of your bike.
