Default Factory matched Paint

Anyone know where to find factory matched spray paints at? I know duplicolor and other companys make them, but I cant locate any in my paint code. B-97M which is 2001 Integra Voltage Blue. Any help would be great.

http://paintscratch.com/ Haven't used them myself, but have seen positive things about them on H-T.

So with them it turns out to be a perfect match then? I have heard that the Voltage blue is a really hard color to match, any ideas?

I don't have any problems with them either. my color firepepper red pearl metallic is a hard color to match perfectly but when I ordered from them.......volia! perfect match. besides if they don't match it up the first time, they'll redo it for you free of charge can't beat that!

So I assume since their page says my car REQUIRES a basecoat and a clearcoat, I HAVE TO order both? Any clues if I HAVE TO order their specific primer as well?

You only have to buy the primer IF your paint is chipped to the point bare metal is showing then you need the primer. for the basecoat and clearcoat, I HIGHLY recommend using both because if you only use the basecoat you will get that cheapass 1-Day Paint/ Macco semi shine/dull look on your paint. The majority of modern cars nowadays uses a minimum of 2-stage paint: basecoat and clearcoat. The clearcoat is what gives it the shine.

BTW click in the icons on that specific website and it will tell you exactly the same thing I just told you.
