Off the shelf Mexico Blue rattle can?
Hi all.
I'm looking to spray some Fuchs in a Mexico Blue color and was wondering if there's anything close at the local spray can retailers. I remember seeing something a while back on the forum but I can't seem to locate it. TIA

I go to tri-city paint to get custom colors put into rattle cans. Is there an automotive paint supply you could go to where you live? BTW it costs about $25. USD to have this done.

Also, check out toyota "voodoo blue" I think that is the name of the blue they use on fj cruiser trucks.
(the ones with the white roofs)

You can buy most Porsche colors as well as other auto colors online from Tower Paints.
I tried them for some touch ups & rattle can for both a BMW & Porsche, & both colors matched up perfectly. |
