Questions about Getting Paint 700

any decent autofactor should be able to make you up spray cans colour matched...

I am guessing what you will have is a metalic with laquer so thats AT LEAST two cans (base coat and laquer)

now heres the bad news:-

1. matching metalics is notoriously dificult
2. the paint will have changed colour since it was applied so you have to have the colour it is NOW matched rather than the simple colour code...
3. metalics are a PITA to spray as the gun, the distance from the object andthe directoion of spray make a difference...
4. ALWAYS spray in one direction
