On-screen color is representative. Your exact match comes from the paint code.

Is K7 the same as R-26?

  • Manufacturer codeK7Usually the one on your car’s label
  • Standard numberR-26

A single factory colour is often recorded under more than one code: the manufacturer’s own code, an industry standard number, and a supplier code. They all mix to the same paint. The code printed on your vehicle’s paint label is the one to match.

Which BYD Auto models came in Chidi Red Metallic External (K7)?

Will K7 match my BYD Auto if the paint has faded?

The kit is mixed to the K7 formula — the same code printed on your vehicle’s paint label — not colour-matched by eye. On panels that still carry their factory paint, that reproduces the original tone.

Where it will not match

  • Panels bleached by years of sun sit lighter than the factory formula. The kit reproduces the original colour, not the faded one.
  • A panel that has already been resprayed is no longer the factory colour, so the code will not describe it.
  • Metallic and pearl finishes are harder to blend across a large area than solid colours — they are at their best on chips and thin scratches.
  • Damage larger than a few centimetres, or down to bare metal over a wide area, is body-shop work.

Buen acabado

Esta bien el producto para tapar alguna raya pequeña, el color está muy logrado y es idéntico al original del coche. Lo recomiendo, pero no sustituye el llevarlo al taller a que lo pinten, como apaño bien está.
