[Healeys] Touch Up Paint

[Bob Spidell]

Phil,


Any good automotive paint shop should be able to match your paint pretty closely with a colorimeter.  I had my "Colorado Red" match perfectly to GM "Peking Red" (what a coincidence ;).  

They will likely have a minimum--probably 1pt--which could set you back $40-50 with catalyst, but IMO it's worth it for a good match (you can always use it to touch up frame bare spots).  They might be able to do an aerosol as well.
