im starting to look for KNY paint to spray my GT front bumper from dark chine blue to light tivoli (saphire) blue, im just wondering does anyone know where i can buy it from? and how much it costs?

iv also heard that there are different primers and laquers that go with difference paint colours, is this true? and can anyone recomend me?

i just want to get the best finish possible without spending a bomb!

My paint code is KNY. Just been into Halfords for a spray can and if says its Tivoli blue in their book. Looks much darker on the lid than the car is. Sapphire Blue looks nearest but they only do it as a Ford colour. Any ideas. Heres the paint code & colour on the car:

I get mine mixed at a local paint suppliers and even thern there were at least 10 different shades on the same blue for my 206 .. all the same paint code .. you really need to take the car to them to match it to one of their paint swatches ..

The first time I get some it was far too dark. Luckily I had the grill parts which meant I could get it matched properly. Even they were surprised at the wide variations ..

BTW most of Halford's "flip-cards" have errors .. wrong batteries, bulbs, etc .. total waste of time ...

Got to admit the Halfords KNY spray can is a pretty good match. Far lighter in colour than the tin lid would lead you to believe!
