Paint for spraying cars new colours
« 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?

Autopaint, Wood autos, or ring standox up and ask for your nearest supplier :)
