PAINT IN AN AEROSOL.

[markymarkthree]

Morning boys and girls.
Where can I get paint made up to match my car in an aerosol?
Preferably in the Bristol/WSM area.

Many thanks.

Any Halfords, just take in the cars paint code and they will mix it up for you. There is one in Weston and several in Bristol.

Thanks C722 not as simple as that the car is a MK3 Cortina in Daytona yellow ish.
I have heard that you can have the paint analized with some fancy bit of kit and the computer does the rest.

Have a chat to http://www.carpaintwarehouse.co.uk/

Popped up there for some bits and bobs recently and they seem a decent bunch.

Indeed there are but not at your local Halfords so I'd suggest you might find it better to contact a bodyshop.

I once had a custom paint job based on VW Royal Blue mixed with (now unavailable) VW blackcherry and a bodyshop was able to use a machine which analyses the pigment to determine the closest match was a Mercedes colour which they could modify!
