Do you need colour matched aerosol cans?

So we all know there is a company is Toronto that will fill an aerosol can with your colour code of paint.

I am going to go down there and pick some up for some upcoming projects.

This doesn't really apply to GTA guys but if there is anyone else in Ontario or out of province that ones a can or two I can pick it up for you and ship it out. I asked them if they ship and they don't, which is why I'll be going down to pick it up.

Cans are 29.99+ tax (13%) and shipping which will be like $10

If anyones interested reply on here, I will be going next week sometime.

Usually they match pretty good. I have used a supplier in Goderich to make up a spray can for me a few years ago and it was not perfect, but darn close.

I just ordered a can of spray touch up paint from a place out in Quebec - http://www.robertspaintcare.com/
Haven't tried it out yet so I am not sure how good the paint or colour match will be.

Yea I phoned them last week and the guy was a little rude but very helpful.


If any locals want to pick some up;

I'm doing headlight mods and thought I would start offering colour matched lights to those who want it so I need to get some for myself and test it out.

There is a paint place at the corner of Victoria and Bingemans Centre Drive across from Zdeno Cycle. Last time I had one mixed up it was under $20.
Sherwin Williams Automotive Finishes.

Just curious. Who does that for you in Godrock? I'm there quite a bit but not enough according to family.

now sure how many, aaah, how big is the can, I need to touch up my front bumper, hate doing it with a pen. I think 2 should be more than enough... ? what do you think?

Oh and Can I get 1 can in Black, I need to paint my rear bumber valance. So 3 in total, I dont have paypal which sucks, but I can send it to you by email transfer from my bank, its canadain so it would work just as fine and it would go directly to you checkings/savings account.

Oh and I have a lakeshore slate

For black, you'd be better off just going to Napa and getting some duplicolor bumper coating. That stuff is great and you don't need to worry about the colour match (because it's not matching anything)

They are average rattle can size, so 12oz?

Wayne is going with 2 cans and I think that's a good amount for random projects and what not. I can always get you more and ship it out.

You could always just pay Wayne and Wayne could paypal me the full amount, but if not, I'm fine with a bank transfer.

^^ So they ship to funkytown??

Got you covered, spellcaster. Blain, when do you expect to place an order? I was sorta thinking about trying to find this kind of service locally, save some tax, shipping and effort on your part. Are you ordering for anyone down there?
