WTB Custom Paint Colors???
I have scoured the internet for auto paint to match a specific color. I have a RAL# and the RGB values but all the auto paint sites only offer from a preexisting selection. I know that for house paint you can get any color you want with their color match machine. But when it comes to auto paint it seems like some kind of conspiracy.... Any suggestions????

I think I solved my problem. I ordered the exact colors from a hobby shop and will have those colors matched at the paint store. My two colors are Panzer Grey and Polizei Dark Green. I found matching colors in a WW2 tank model camouflage set.

If you have a piece that has the colour you want small enough to take with you, you should be able to go to any local Autobody Jobber, where they will scan the sample piece. The info from the scan gives them a recipe to mix the colour.
