Yes its still available from trade paint shops, I believe the stuff you get in aerosol cans these days isn't celly but I could be wrong, its been a long time since I've bought a can.

Take a small piece/body panel into a trade paint supplier and they will colour match for you.
A body shop does not want to spray any more than they have to so colour match is critical to them. As a result the paint suppliers have gotten quite good at it.

Just use 2K instead - its less likely to cause reactions as its a sealant as well, I can be emailed on Lotuselises2ATaolDOTcom if you need any further advice.
