Dupli-Color has a line of spray paint that is matched to factory colors, I know they have Honda colors so they will probably have it available. Just go auto-zone or some other auto parts store, and they should carry it.

Re: Color question
Or take your paint code (you can find it in the door jamb) to your local Honda dealership, and plunk down $7 for a bottle of touch up paint. Airbrush it one and viola, you got it. Maybe get two jars, because one may not be enough for a wagon.

You need to use an automotive primer though if you use automotive paints.

Duplicolor has that color silver, I'm almost positive. I have a friend who painted his Mustang that color and I've thought about doing a model of it before. One can of Duplicolor will cost you about $4 and will be more than enough to spray a car from mistcoat through a third wetcoat. I just finished a 94 Corvette Convertible in GM Medium Garnet Red and it looks SICK. I love that paint.

Re: Color question
duplicolor makes a transparent primer specially for plastic and polycarbonate, i use it for my model cars before i paint it with their auto paint, works great
