Where can i find matching paint in spray form?

[Ziggymidget5]

I already have a bottle of brush on touch-up paint from the Honda dealer, which looks nice, but i also have some larger areas on my car that i need to spray. I have a frost white 1995 Si (i think color code NH-538 or something) and i tried getting the "matching" paint in a spray can from Autozone, but it really doesnt match well. Where can i find spray paint that matches well? Thanks for suggestions.

a nice auto paint store, can make a can of you're exact paint. sometimes by code (prefered). or they have a machine that scans your paint, and the custom make it from that. usually 12-16 bucks a can.

hehe... mine got scanned as 1988 ford mustang lx white. scary eh.

I had a can of paint made for my civic. I took the fuel door off and they matched it up almost perfect. Costed me $17.00

Thanks for the info. What would you consider as a good auto paint store? I don't really think there is one where i live. What about someplace like Lowe's or Farm and Fleet, i think they scan paint (not auto specific), but would it work the same?

Where state are you in? WI, IA, or IL. I may be able to send you in the right direction. Lowes or F&F wont have anything like that

Illinois, thanks.

Do you live near the quad cities there is a place here to get the paint.

[Ziggymidget5]

No, I live in east central Illinois, Champaign to be exact, where the University of Illinois is.

My Dad lives there. Actually he lives in Urbana. Let me ask him

there no automotive paint stores, in the auto section of the phone book?

i'd try there, and start callin.

[Ziggymidget5]

Thanks for all the replies. Why am I so stupid to not look in the phone book yellow pages? I don't know but that's a good idea.
