Default Rio Red Aftermarket Paint Matches?

What aftermarket paints have you found that come close to matching Rio Red or even faded Rio Red? What brand and color name?

Thanks

You can go to a place that sells automotive paint and get rio red. There is a little shop by me that carries everything from lambos to hondas. All paint colors and samples.

Do you need a whole can of paint or stuff for touch up?

Here is touch-up or most local autoparts stores carry them. http://www.hondapartswarehouse.com/honda_paint.asp


Below you will find a link that asks if you want a gallon half gallon or whatever you need in rio red.

Here is the link for every other color honda made in 1990 for their civic.

X2 it matched my car perfectly!!! and its rustoleum! the only bad part is, it gets darker every year so it might be good to hit it with some clear coat for preservation.

Don't be so ghetto folks. Get something that actually matches your car.

www.paintscratch.com

I bought some Rio Red years ago and still have the spraycan. Matches perfectly. You can also buy it with a flex agent for the bumpers and such.
