[QUOTE="plutoII, post: 703967, member: 14411"] Many spray shops will use their experience to mix and create your Sapphire Black by using any brand of locally-made paint systems. They are driven by most car owners' reluctance to pay a 2013 price for any spray job. To replicate your Sapphire Black in the technically correct way (which is much more expensive) with no guesswork, the only method is to use the Colour Code and order the paint from the supplier. It could be BASF, PPG or any other imported brands. If you were to compare "per liter" price of these imported brands vs local brands, the price diff is significant, and you must be prepared. Another area of concern is, you're only spraying the "outside" which normally excludes the doorjamb area. Pls be prepared that the new coat of "technically correct" Sapphire Black might not match the aged Sapphire Black in you door jamb and sill areas. When you open doors and trunk, it could be noticeable.
