Rattle Can Suppliers
w4lrus - 25/4/12 at 12:49 PM

Does anybody know of a good supplier of rattle can paint?

My local Halfords stores have been worse than useless, either not having the right component colours and not able to tell me if and when they will be getting any in, or refusing to mix colours to a RAL code as they apparently only can supply paint with car details.

I am after a couple of rattle cans because I want to tart up various components (e.g. engine mounts) to match my bodywork colour, and I do not have a compressor.

Thanks in advance for your help

Not cheap? They are about half the price of the local car parts shop here.

Might have a trip up there when I go up to my lads.

Well done that duck.

Haven't ordered from them in a while but they worked out bit more than Valdosta, bug as I said the match is perfect.
