    Paint Source

    I'm looking for Bronze Green paint for the body of my Series 3. I have found paint codes, but no actual paint. From where is it possible to obtain paint? Thanks

    Tower Paint Company.

    Or, I have bought it from the local auto paint store. Finish Master usually has the codes and paint if you have one close.

      They will hook you up. Can get spray cans etc and if the color isn't listed just call them and they will work their magic. No affiliation just a happy customer.

          I used to get it mixed up at a local Carquest.

            Thanks for the sources. I found this guy http://www.paintman.co.uk/ and he seems pretty legit. I dont know how much shipping would be, but it looks good.

              You're really going to order paint from the UK? Really?

              Its color...Any good paint supplier can mix paint for you in the proper color and will be there to help you with all the other stuff you'll need.

              P.S. That dick still has a picture of my truck on his website after I told him to take it down a few years ago.

                I tried to buy some special paint from the UK once (Suncorite) and shipping turned out to be a nightmare. That was for something
                that absolutely can't be had here in the USA. I'd never bother with something simple like automotive paint that can be mixed up to match in almost every town.

                  Like everyone has said, buy local. And if you are spendy enough to order form the UK, just realize there are two shades....

                    Yeah, local is the way to go. The uk stuff is a back up.

                      Yeah, I wouldn't order it if you're dealing with Green... have it matched. I know with my rover after doing a lot of research that my truck Deep Bronze Green but there's also just a Bronze Green color as well.
