I was wondering if anyone on here had ordered Touch Up paint from here before http://www.carpaintrepair.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and if so, were you pleased with the colour match?
They claim to be able to identify which paint you require simply from your car registration however I already know I need Timor Beige LH8T but a previous order with http://www.premierpaintpots.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ended with them not supplying a particularly close match despite providing the paint code and has left me a little wary of ordering online again.
Kevtherev's suggestion of removing the slider shroud and taking to a local paint shop has already been noted however I'm not aware of anyone reputable in my area (Northwood, Middlesex) so again any recommendations for someone reputable in the vicinity would be good too !

Re: Touch up paint
I ordered some Nissan silver paint from Carpaintrepair, I can't comment on the quality of the match though as it arrived in a jiffy bag and had exploded all over the place! Was leaking out of the bag onto to mat when I found it, they promised to send more but never did.
I have just received the same Nissan silver paint and some Nutria L575 for the Camper from Premier and I'm very pleased with the match. They do it in rattle cans too which is handy.

Re: Touch up paint
Cheers batmangb ... Think I'll steer clear of them then and continue the search for a decent local paint supplier ...
