There are a number of shops in Calgary that supply cans of coded paint. SAMs body shop supplies on manhatten rd. SE is a good one.

 

^^ Thanks, Keith, maybe I'll swing by there. Gotta be close to your shop, right?

 

Yup, half a block down the road.

 

There you have it Wayne! Pick up some LS paint for him as well!

 

^^ Yup, I think I might do that. Thanks for the offer and trouble, anyway, Blain!

 

It was at a paint shop near the Bowling Alley, It's been a while though Paul, I don't even know if it's still there. I will check next time I'm through there.

 

I'm pretty sure Home Hardware does custom coloured spray paint too. It's $20 or so a can IIRC.

 

On your recommendation, I dropped in to SAM's today and picked up a can of D10 (Emerald Mist) for 20 bucks, mixed while I waited by a friendly gal in a tight t-shirt. Can't get a much better deal than that! They do straight acrylic enamel (that's what I bought for just some odd parts) and base/clear for $20/$16. Still a great deal, IMO.

 

^ you should have asked her about clear bra.

 

^^ LOLOL, that's that OTHER Wayne's trick...

 

I have used Cawthra Automotive - Sherwin Williams Automotive in Mississauga, and whiles the prices are somewhat decent ($20 per aerosol can for paint match), the actual color match isn't good. I got paint from them for a '97 Civic and '00 Accord, and both times the shades were completely different.
