Same, car colours are usually pretty good.

If you got the dollars check out Evans European on Church St Penrose/Onehunga.

There is a place on the concourse in henderson - forget the name of it but its hard to miss - they seemed quite good value when i went there.

hey sorry to hijack your thread but its the same/similar topic, i need my paint matched so i can get say 500mL of it...what sort of price am i looking at and who does excellent colour matching? thanks

Be very careful when colour matching and repainting as you may end up having to blend into surrounding areas. The number of coats etc all make a difference especially if the first spray was quite thin/transperant. Car Colours are pretty good although its usually better to leave it up to the person painting your car as they can tint to suit while spraying.

yeh i only want a little bit of it for touch up, not for respraying a particular panel..

Car colours are in Albany so not that far over the bridge.

I also use car colours quite a bit for repairs of various cars etc.
touch up can/pot will cost you $35-45 depending.
