morning mate!

most decent paint places can "read" your paint shade using a machine and mix up some that matches perfectly.

i'd take along the fuel cap or summat and get them to scan that-shouldnt be too difficult

or ask the sprayer if he remembers???

whats up with the painter? toothache-drink whisky and fall down-cut on the head removes pain from tooth

analysis machine should be available at any paint mixing company-even the places that do house paint use them now!

he'res some info on them..
