Terry, I bought a Bianchi paint kit from Rider's Cycles...one can of Celeste and one can of clearcoat. Unfortunately, it's the "new" Celeste, not classic Celeste and you'd need about 4 kits to repaint a frame. Try JB's Automotive in downtown Victoria. I use them for all my paint needs now. If you have a little of the original paint left on your frame, take the frame down to them and they should be able to match it pretty closely. Then can mix it up in spray cans or for spray gun systems. Sherry Buttnor Metchosin BC
