Hi all. I have been trying to get a colour mixed for the past XXXX time. Getting nowhere slow.

The colour can be seen HERE. Just click on the colour chart to enlarge.

I do not want the next best thing, tried that and it just does not work
So, anybody got any ideas on where I might find it? OH, I have tried 'ALL' the local car paint shops. Even Halfords. Within the UK.

YES, I have looked at that site before. Doing what they ask. I get a different colour than the one I'm after. £14 is cheap, it's only £4 more than my main paint shop here in Southampton. But add the VAT, Postage???? If they can do it. Done. Thanks.

Hi Ember, Yes, you would think that was the case. Done this a few time for colour I wanted to be just right. Sadly, in this case. Non of them can come up with the goods.
Thanks Ember

I have just contacted Dupont. We will see what they come back with.
Thanks guys.
I'll keep you updated.

And the answer is......(Drun Roll here please)
QUOTE Hi Andy

In the ici system it is called limelight. I am afraid that we are not able to make this colour as it has a discontinued basic in it. If you can find someone that mixed ICI paint then they should be able to make it for you from the code FJ5.

On to ICI

Thanks Rusty, just sent them both an email. I may take you up on your offer.
Had to pop into Halfords to pick up some AF. So I asked them. Although ver helpfull. They only go back to the year 200o for Dodge paint. So no BG.
Thanks.

You sir are a blodly marvel. WOW Fing WOW.
I'll be onto them in the morning.
Cheers, IOY a beer.

Yes that email is from Paints4U. Had nothing back from Dupont.
Yes found the paint, now to see if they ship to the UK
Thing is, sold in oz, How much paint is 3oz? And how many oz to give 2 to 3 coats of paint on a 32 car
3oz = 0.0887205886875L = 88.7205 ml. Your avg. rattle can is 300Ml. so 6oz should do it.
I think I have answered the question myself. 09.37am, and my brain seems to be in GWO for onec.

I knew things where going to well. QUOTE If your country is not listed, we cannot accept your order at this time. And you have guessed it. The only country listed is......the USA.
GREAT!
OK, anybody over the pond willing to help me out here. I'll send you the money inc. P&P via PP personnel, gift. You buy the paint and send on to me. PM me if you like.
