Colour matching

[Eyesee]

Apologies in advance if this has been covered before but I came out to my Octy this morning to find paint peeling off the boot in a small area. Weather? 

 

Anyway, I was wondering if I can get hold of a small tub/spray of paint that matches the car that won’t cost the earth. 

 

Any pointers? Thanks in advance.

Google {tm} car paint suppliers near you.  They should be able to either direct match your car colour or match its paint code (which you can get from your local Skoda dealer via your registration number).

 

Here's a few to get you started:

Autocolours Auto parts store, Rhyl 01745 344457
Chirk Auto Paints, Wrexham, 01691 774400
A & B Auto Paint & Panel Repairs, Car Body Shop, Deeside, 01244 532238

Your colour code should my on a sticker/plaque on the car side of one of the front doors.

 

This was the cheapest I could find. You get the clear paint also.

That's pretty good.  I've been paying around a tenner per can for local pickup from a couple of car paint specialists.
