1975 Yamaha RD 350 - What type of paint did the factory use?

[Brad-Man]

The two previous years they had metallic paint colors but then went to a solid Portuguese Orange.

This was about the time the Japanese were using varying Two coat paint processes.

I want to know what to use for touch ups.

Anybody know or know how to tell?

Thanks.

Back in 75 I would guess that it was acrylic enamel but you could use urethane to do a repaint.
