Custom color in a spray can?

[dcoplan]

My Bugeye has a custom paint job that very closely matches a color by Toyota. I have a code for this color but I can't seem to find a source for this color in a spray can, only touch up paint. It could also possibly be Cotswold Blue though I haven't gotten a sample to hold up to my car to compare.

If you're trying to match the Toyota color directly and have the code, lots of places online will put it in a spray can for you, like this one: https://www.automotivetouchup.com/
But if you're trying to exactly match a custom metallic color, you're better off going to a place like this that can do a hand-match of the color https://www.paintscratch.com/custom.html or a computer match if it's non-metallic.

I have had very good luck with Tower Paints.

Do you have a link for them? I Googled 'Tower Paints' and got a number of results that I don't think are quite right.

I went to the local auto paint supplier and he was able to make me two cans of spray paint up from the color sample I had. Matched perfect. I carry them when going away for extended trip.
