any decent paint shop supplier should be able to make you up a tin using your code. youll probably have the best contacts already if your in the trade.o22ie wrote:Can you supply Lachs Silver Paint in Tin form as opposed to the Aerosols as I Want To Put Some Through The Sprayer at Work
if its a smallish area your doing the little cans are good enough. i used half a dozen cans from bmw to do my front wing and 1 can on each wing mirror. gave a really good finish.
