Wink Touching her up!

Good Morning!

Would anyone know a bodyshop / paint supplier that can exactly match my WR Blue (O2C I think) paint colour and supply either a touch up stick or small pot of paint in the Hudds/Leeds area please?

I know there is a machine for scanning colours, but have yet to find a car place with one, the two attempts I have had at finding a colour have both been too dark

I am told by a local bosyshop there are two shades of WR Blue, so I assume mine is the lighter shade

TIA...D-an-W

Martin.Thanks for the subtle shift of attention, I don't think anyone noticed..

I needed a little more than a touch up brush, T-cut & buff.

Alton cars would be able to do an exact match and I'm not sure if they'd supply a small pot. In this case I think Dave's suggestion is best..

Not sure if it goes well but will find out, does not come with laquer, This is why I think it's darker than the 02C, and also not using the spray gun etc, Some scoobs do seem to be a darker shade of blue, only slightly though..
