Default OT: Factory paint in a spray can??

Sorry for OT, but I've tried my local message board & online search, but I can't seem to find a place that has capability to put Honda factory paint in a spray can.

Does anyone know of a body/paint shop that can sell me factory Nighthawk Black Pearl (NBP) paint in a spray can and ship it to me?

Thanks,
Sean

Sean, you might want to just try contact a local body shop. If you give them the paint code, they might be able to mix up a batch. Now as far as getting it into a spray can... I dunno. You might have to use a paint gun and air compressor.

Sean...

There is a place online, where you can give them your paint code, and they can do batches of spray cans. I think it's like 2 or 3 cans needed per order. I actually wouldn't suggest it though. Which parts do you want to spray with can?

The only damage was to the Pass side fender, and also the rear quarter panel, with the little part under the taillight, correct?

You are still watching out for a NBP fender, right? Did you get an estimate of the cost for the rear of the car?

I am really glad that Coletti Motorsports was able to get you back out on the track! to Coletti Motorsports

Hey Sean,
Check with Duplicolor. They had my matching color in a can..and man it matched perfectly. I used there filler primer and there Clear coat and..it looks good as stock. Dont laugh..but I even Color sanded and buffed my fender...to get rid of any orange peel or any lint..which made it look even more better. Let me know..if you need help finding it..and good luck

I got the frame pulled and my local body shop banged out the rear quarter panel. They did an awesome job.

I just gotta touch up the exposed metal part w/ rust-proof primer and need to get a matching factory paint over it.

I'll give the online shop a chance and will let you know how it turns out. </TD></TR></TABLE>

i had a local auto paint place in Frederick, MD do it for a civic i used to own.. put it in a spray can for me.. i also got 2 spray cans of CW off here awhile back..

call your local PPG or duplicolor retailer, they SHOULD be able to do it.. Not sure where you are, but I know a place in St. Louis, MO that'll do it too..

You might want to try Tower Paint. Because I recieved 2 CW spray paint cans from them to spray my rear valences. It matches perfectly .

To bad my car was ITR ws stolen 3 days later from when I got the cans

I've still got enough CW for 3 more spray cans. I had to buy a quart 'cause it was special order limited paint

All that so my plastic model R wouldn't be taffita white
