Hi guys, im after a can of paint which will match my zinnobar red car, is it a matter of getting it from BMW, or can you get a good match and quality from somewhere else? Thanks, Theo.

Halfords sell paint in cans. but im not sure if they will need to mix zinnobar

some car paint shops will do a mix and put it in a spray can,if you take the petrol flap off and give it a good t cutting (to get original colour back)take it in and they should match it

My Zinnober red car still has quite good paint (ie not Zinnober Pink !!) , and I just went to my local automotive paint shop and they mixed up a spray pack just from the paint code. Matches very well, although I was only touching up areas around my fogs and front lip.

Ask Ziggy i know he has tried at least a couple of brands to touch up a bit on his cab, i think the Halfords paint was the worst of the bunch...

I bought some paint in a spray can for my mums Schwarz Black 316i from my local paint factors. I just told them it was BMW Schwarz Black, and they mixed it up and put it in a spray can. The colour match is spot on and the finish is very good too.

I went into an auto spares shop yesterday to pick something out and noticed there was a rack of spray paints, had a look and the first red can i looked at was bmw zinnobar red, Ԛ£2.50 well spent!
