BMW Paint colour availability....

[SwirlyE30]

Just wondering what the availability is like on getting other BMW colours in spray form? I know places like Halfords do Brilliant Red and some basic colours, but is it possible (and cheap ) to find some other colours in an aerosol. Is it right that some places will mix you up some and put it in a spray can?

Cheers

i could also do with some dolphin paint in an aerosol can, just the paint not the lacquer to spray some under carpet and engine bay areas

Can't you get rattle cans from the dealers ?

You can get spray aerosol cans from the dealers in varying sizes, and the prices are not too bad either.
Don't bother getting from anywhere else, as even though the names may be the same, the actual codes can change, so the shades may not match.

Dealers everytime!

Yeah i ordered some paint from the stealers, only needed a bit for some patchup work, cheap too!

[SwirlyE30]

Oh right,nice one. Is it quite pricey or reasonably cheap from the dealers?

Ive ordered the smallest can/paint touch up stick, not sure what ive actually bought until i get it in my hand haha. But it was only Ԛ£3.41+vat!

Oh right, aint too bad .Be nice to know the price for quite a considerable sized Spray.Its handy to be able to have some incase you need to do some work.My brothers IS lip was painted by Halfords BMW red and then laquerd, worked out great from a spreay can.And you can redo it when it chips etc.

Take your V5 or your chassis number down, sometimes they dont know the colours off by heart and need to match it to your actual machine!
