The example at Airbus's Finkenwerder (Hamburg) plant has been recently re-painted (aledgedly to check out the new A380 paintshop) using what looks like mica paint - it looks stunning. Their Hansa-Jet has had a refresh too.
The Toulouse example could use a bit of tlc though.
If anyone has the manuals you seek, I guess it will be Airbus at Toulouse or maybe Hamburg.
Or maybe Les Ailes Anciennes in Toulouse. Address on this site:
