Im sure any good local automtive paint supplyers will mix you some. i know theres a shop on ebay that sells all types maybe worth doing a search for them & asking if he will mix you some. think the company sells jewels paint or is called it.

you can try see if you have a brown brothers etc local to you .

just remember to ware a good mask or atleast have good ventalation why paint + watch it dont bloom if painting in coldish area save you polishing it to death after .

hope it helps

regards

Hi.Thanks for the info.I have found a place near me called Bowmans of Hexham, and they will sell celulose paint in the tin.
I will give them a call tomorrow.

Just remember it's highly flammable - no naked flames/heaters etc! Had a mate years ago who burned down his father's garage - spraying a car with doors closed and a roaring wood burning stove in the corner! Fortunately - none of them were hurt - the car was ruined.

I got my paint from http://www.expresspaints.co.uk based in Portsmouth. The price was reasonable and they are able to make up to original colour codes.
