fork paint

Had a look and can't find any info on the correct light gold colour for the forks. Anyone know where I can the right paint?

I assumed that they were anodised, which is a chemical process. I have seen "home" kits devised by individuals, which have resulted in different colours, but the chemicals are not what you want in a garage. I assume that you have patches of wear on yours, which reveal the aluminium colour. Try rotating the units so that these areas are on the inside of the leg and do not show.
