you try them ?
that's right, get the paint code and it will be made up for you, only problem is that they may insist on a minimum amount off paint, could end up paying for 1/2 a litre ...

thay are really good my mrs curbed one of my rims on one of my old cars, the guys there matched up an aerosol for me to touch it up went through loads of charts and came up with a mercedes silver, as it had quite a heavy metalflake in it, i rubbed down the scuff and blew it over i sold the car and guy didnt even notice was such a good job thay sell all bodywork stuff airtools,prep stuff, polish everything you could need thay sell nice massive pots of filler for a tenner aswell came in handy when i played with the real old cars highly recomended thay have been there years aswell
Check out the pictures in my garage, is yours the same colour? If so then it's steel mist grey, code 187. This paint is still available as I've just had a respray not 4 months ago. If yours is the same code and you can't get hold of any paint then give me a shout as my bodyshop still has some left over and I could send you enough to do some touching up
