Thanks Vikki, I also use Zaino...(the best , in my book)...my car was re-painted 2.5 yrs ago in two stages,first front fenders( one was a different shade than the other..), hood (I replaced it w another used , blue)and cowl....4 weeks later had doors, rear fenders (had some patch work), tail and trunk done... found out that most painters are hesitant to paint an entire "classic": car, I heard "owners are very demanding", but not so hesitant to do 'repairs', so I 'repaired' mine...lol paint matches fine...just made sure I got enough paint the first time , so it was from the same 'batch'....
