Paint - where to buy?

The previous owner cracked one of the skirts which I want to repair and paint.

 

I'm confident I can get a good finish but I'm finding it difficult getting a good match.

 

I've tried two paint supply places and also Halfords, it's red 3L2.

 

When I had the front bumper painted the bloke thought the paint might have had a tinted lacquer.

 

Any ideas where I can get a better match, there aren't so many places that sell cellulose.

 

Any thoughts on using 2 pack, I know of the hazards involved?

Any paint factors can help. I use Autopaint in Luton if I HAVE to!

Must mostly A.R. Davies motor factors in Royston/Baldock!

 

Also Eurocolour are good in Dunstable. If you give them the code of take a car part (wing mirror, or fuel cap) they'll match the colour, give u it in a tin from half Ltr upwards, or even put it into an aerosole can for you.

 

It highly highly unlikely you have tinted lacquer

 

I use 2pack 99% of the time. I don't do bodywork anymore, but still own half of my business, i'll enquire for you if you like - PM me if you want!

I need to find a place like this close to me - North East.

 

I'm thinking it might not be a good idea to mess with 2 pack , I haven't got any face masks.

 

Thanks
