it is painted a dark grey colour.
the paint details that came with the car paperwork refer to it as a General Motors (5358) Gunmetal. It also states that the paint used is IXELL H.S.
My local paint stockist tells me that this is a make of French paint used widely on French cars, but unfortunately he does not stock IXELL paints.
does anyone know how I can discover my closest IXELL stockist (I live in Bedford).
the IXELL website is not very helpful.

thanks, Rosanne

A paint code is a paint code.
There are loads of manufacturers of automotive paint systems but in almost every case any colour can be mixed in any system (think of taking a pot of Crown paint to Dulux and asking them to mix that colour and they'd get it spot on).
However the code you've given isn't recognised in my system.
What make & model have you got (assuming it's not a kit) and year, and place of manufacture?
It might help to narrow things down a bit.
