Title: Paint for spraying cars new colours
Post by: d4w50n on 14 May 2009, 12:39

Out of curiosity, where do you guys buy your paints from?

My local parts shop charge £4 a tin for 200ml spray cans, which is a bit steep considering how much is needed to cover a whole car lol. Is there a good shop to buy in bulk?

A google search yields few if any decent results, are there any recommendations for suppliers of auto paint in the NW UK?
